When Steinmeyer sewed olives in Chania – Try sommelier olive oil

The production stages of olive oil from harvest to production and standardisation, had the opportunity to meet the German president who was found today (31.10.2024) in Chania, completing his three-day visit to Greece. The German President, Frank – Walter Steinmeyer arrived at the olive oil factory in Kolybari Chania in Crete and was guided by the olive grove and the modern facilities. In fact, he had the chance not only to be informed of how the olive fruit harvest takes place, but to make an effort himself by operating an olive-rabbic machine but also his wife, Elke Budenbender. He then attended the process of expelling the fruit and producing olive oil, writes flashnews.gr. A taste followed with sommelier olive oil showing the president, his wife and the attendees his way of testing in order to make his aromas and intense taste felt. The German president’s visit to Terra Creta’s premises took place within the framework of the project of the TEI Care Foundation in Crete which is developing partnerships with producers and companies in Crete that are making the transition to more sustainable agricultural practices. Terra Creta participates in the modern facilities of which there was a presentation of the regenerative agricultural production methods of the “gold” of Crete.
