The award-winning Kyklopas from Evros. A family is sweeping global awards! A family business of three generations, with continuous learning and development, has managed to win 100 awards for the superior taste and superior quality of its products from distinguished international competitions. The Kelidis family cultivates 12.000 olive trees, from which they produce Kyklopas extra virgin olive oil at their privately-owned olive press and they also bottle the oil on-site. By being in full control of every stage of production, and by keeping a watchful eye on the very last detail, they have managed to make a region in Greece (Makri) known and put it on the world olive oil map. For the last ten years Kyklops Mill has outperformed in global competitions for quality. The most recent addition of yet another Great Taste award for the quality of their extra virgin olive oil, took their total number of global awards to 100. In the latest global EVOOWR (Extra Virgin Olive Oil World Ranking) listings of 2018, Kyklopas is ranked 33rd world-wide out of 9522 olive oils, and 1st in Greece! It is the first time that a Greek extra virgin olive oil has attained such a high position among so many competitors! Their products are exported to 17 countries around the world, helping a family make their products known, and proving that they deserve a place on the global olive oil map.
