Erkence

This very special olive oil sipped even in breakfast by almost everyone who lives on the Gulf shore and defined as panacea on account of its aroma, color and clarity is produced in Burhaniye… An exact elixir of health with a distinguishing grassy aroma and a golden yellow color, this olive oil produced in Burhaniye, the home to the most ancient cooperative of Anatolia, was much liked also in the ancient times. You can relish a soft fruity taste that tends to resemble the mild aroma of natural herbs with a blend of walnut-like savor when you taste this olive oil. Erkence is produced from olives harvested early from trees located up to 150 meters from sea level. Early harvesting starts at the end of October and the beginning of November. Cold pressing and modern centrifuge systems are used to produce olives picked by hand or with long sticks.
