& Special Prizes Αthena International Olive Oil Competition 26 ΧΑΛΚΙΝΑ- 28 March ΜΕΤΑΛΛΙΑ* 2018 OLIVE OIL PRODUCER DELPHIVARIETAL MAKE-UP• PHOCIS REGION COUNTRY WEBSITE ΜEDALS & SPECIAL PRIZES Final Participation and Awards Results For its third edition the Athena International Olive Oil Competition (ATHIOOC) showed a 22% increase in the num- ber of participating samples; 359 extra virgin olive oils from 12 countries were judged by a panel of 20 interna- tional experts from 11 countries. This is the first year that the number of samples from abroad overpassed those from Greece: of the 359 samples tasted, 171 were Greek (48%) and 188 (52%) from other countries. In conjunction with the high number of inter- national judges (2/3 of the tasting panel), this establishes Athena as one of the few truly international extra virgin olive oil competitions in the world ―and one of the fastest growing ones. ATHIOOC 2018 awarded 242 medals in the following categories: 13 Double Gold (scoring 95-100%), 100 Gold (scoring 85-95%), 89 Silver (scoring 75-85%) and 40 Bronze (scoring 65-75%). There were also several special prizes including «Best of Show» which this year goes to Palacio de los Olivos from Andalusia, Spain. There is also a notable increase in the number of cultivars present: 124 this year compared to 92 last year, testify- ing to the amazing diversity of the olive oil world. The awards ceremony will take place in Athens on Saturday, April 28 2018, 18:00, at the Zappeion Megaron Con- ference & Exhibitions Hall in the city center. This event will be preceded by a day-long, stand-up and self-pour tasting of all award-winning olive oils.

  • Kreta Reserve Extra Virgin Olive Oil Information and Retail Pricing
    Kreta Reserve Extra Virgin Olive Oil Information and Retail Pricing You cannot buy a higher quality or more healthful extra virgin olive oil at any price! Grown, Harvested, Pressed, Packed, and Imported by GMHS International, LLC - Tony Sansone, CEO Phone: 850-368-7162 Email: [email protected] www.kretareserve.com + Super Low Acidity: 0.22% The acidity in extra virgin olive oil is the first and foremost indicator of quality. Each crop year, we strive to produce oil with the lowest possible acidity level. The best oils we can find on the market have acidity levels of 0.3% or higher. Per standards set by the International Olive Oil Council, extra virgin olive oil can have acidity as high as 0.8%. Thus, Kreta Reserve has achieved a unique level of quality. + Super Low Peroxide Value: 9 meq O2 /Kg In simple terms, the peroxide value of an extra virgin olive oil tells us how long the oil will last before it turns rancid. It is an indicator of the quantity of particles in the oil that have oxidized. For example, if you allow damaged, rotten, or rancid olives to be processed along with good olives, then the peroxide val- ue will be high. The International Olive Oil Council allows a peroxide value of 20 or less for extra virgin olive oil. Our 2009 harvest crop had a very low peroxide value of 9. Kreta Reserve EVOO will remain fresh and wholesome for years when stored properly. In the better olive oils we tested, the peroxide value range was 12-14.

  • A HISTORY of the PELASGIAN THEORY. FEW Peoples Of
    A HISTORY OF THE PELASGIAN THEORY. FEW peoples of the ancient world have given rise to so much controversy as the Pelasgians; and of few, after some centuries of discussion, is so little clearly established. Like the Phoenicians, the Celts, and of recent years the Teutons, they have been a peg upon which to hang all sorts of speculation ; and whenever an inconvenient circumstance has deranged the symmetry of a theory, it has been safe to ' call it Pelasgian and pass on.' One main reason for this ill-repute, into which the Pelasgian name has fallen, has been the very uncritical fashion in which the ancient statements about the Pelasgians have commonly been mishandled. It has been the custom to treat passages from Homer, from Herodotus, from Ephorus, and from Pausanias, as if they were so many interchangeable bricks to build up the speculative edifice; as if it needed no proof that genealogies found sum- marized in Pausanias or Apollodorus ' were taken by them from poems of the same class with the Theogony, or from ancient treatises, or from prevalent opinions ;' as if, further, ' if we find them mentioning the Pelasgian nation, they do at all events belong to an age when that name and people had nothing of the mystery which they bore to the eyes of the later Greeks, for instance of Strabo;' and as though (in the same passage) a statement of Stephanus of Byzantium about Pelasgians in Italy ' were evidence to the same effect, perfectly unexceptionable and as strictly historical as the case will admit of 1 No one doubts, of course, either that popular tradition may transmit, or that late writers may transcribe, statements which come from very early, and even from contemporary sources.

  • Evaluation of Fatty Acid and Sterol Profiles, California Olive Oil, 2016/17 Season
    Evaluation of Fatty Acid and Sterol Profiles, California Olive Oil, 2016/17 Season Evaluation of Fatty Acid and Sterol Profiles California Olive Oil 2016/17 Season Submitted to the Olive Oil Commission of California June 2017 Evaluation of Fatty Acid and Sterol Profiles, California Olive Oil, 2016/17 Season Evaluation of Fatty Acid and Sterol Profiles, California Olive Oil, 2016/17 Season SUMMARY At the request of the Olive Oil Commission of California (OOCC), the UC Davis Olive Center collected California olive oil samples produced in the 2016/17 Season and analyzed fatty acid and sterol profiles. The study team collected 70 single-variety samples of olive oil from California commercial producers. Samples that were found to be outside one or more parameters at the UC Davis laboratory were sent to Modern Olives Laboratory (Woodland, CA) for retesting. Both laboratories agreed that 61 of 70 samples (87 percent) were within the fatty acid and sterol parameters required in California. Nine samples (13 percent) were outside at least one fatty acid or sterol parameter. The Commission may wish to recommend modifications to California olive oil standards so that fatty acid and sterol profile standards accommodate all olive oil produced in California and assess new and advanced methods to analyze olive oil purity with the potential to cost less, be more accurate, and minimize laboratory variability. BACKGROUND The Olive Oil Commission of California requested the UC Davis Olive Center to collect data on the fatty acid and sterol profile of California olive oils from commercial samples. The Commission requested that the Olive Center collect at least 70 samples from a wide range of varieties and counties.

The study concerns oils of three European olive cultivars (Arbosana, Arbequina and Koroneiki) which were recently introduced in Morocco under irrigated high-density plantation system. GC/MS aroma profiles of analyzed VOOs showed the presence of 35 volatile compounds. The major compounds in such oils are C6 compounds produced from linoleic and linolenic acids via lipoxygenase pathway such as trans-2-hexenal, cis-2-hexenal, cis-3-hexen-1-ol, trans-3-hexen-1-ol, trans-3-hexen-1-ol acetate, hexanal and 1-hexanol in different proportions depending on the cultivar (p < 0.05).

DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Linda Jane Piper, A.B., M.A. The Ohio State University 1966 Approved by Adviser Department of History PREFACE The history of Sparta from the death of Alexander in 323 B.C; to the destruction of Corinth in 1^6 B.C. is the history of social revolution and Sparta's second rise to military promi­ nence in the Peloponnesus; the history of kings and tyrants; the history of Sparta's struggle to remain autonomous in a period of amalgamation. It is also a period in Sparta's history too often neglected by historians both past and present. There is no monograph directly concerned with Hellenistic Sparta. For the most part, this period is briefly and only inci­ dentally covered in works dealing either with the whole history of ancient Sparta, or simply as a part of Hellenic or Hellenistic 1 2 history in toto. Both Pierre Roussel and Eug&ne Cavaignac, in their respective surveys of Spartan history, have written clear and concise chapters on the Hellenistic period. Because of the scope of their subject, however, they were forced to limit them­ selves to only the most important events and people of this time, and great gaps are left in between.
