Olive spread made from green olives odrůda s vysokým obsahem polyfenolů - 190 g
Our Kolovi Green Olive Tapenade is made from one of the oldest olive varieties in Greece, which grows only on the island of Lesvos. This rare variety of Kola is not widely known, but its unique character and taste are unmistakable.
This delicious tapenade from ACAIA is made exclusively from these ancient olives. It's a great way to enjoy their unique flavors and aromas beyond the traditional olive oil.
The olives for our tapenade come from the island of Lesvos, which has a dry climate with limited rainfall. The trees have strong roots that allow them to absorb unique nutrients from the soil, giving the olives their final extraordinary flavour.
Our tapenade is a great versatile addition to your kitchen. You can mix it with mayonnaise to create a healthy spread, add it to pizza as one of the toppings or use it to stuff grilled mushrooms. It also tastes great with different types of cheese or simply spread on crackers.
In 2019, our tapenade received the GREAT TASTE award for its unique taste. Olive tapenades ACAIA are supplied in glass containers weighing 190 g. Try the KOLOVI black olive alternative and discover new flavours.

Our logo
Our logo features the ancestral coat of arms of our family, which depicts a dove sitting on the globe and carrying an olive branch in its beak.
In addition to representing our family heritage, we chose it as our representation because it expresses the ideal of global peace and also symbolizes the spiritual and material importance of olives as food for the mind and body that transcends cultures around the world.
About Lesvos
Lesvos is the third largest Greek island in the northern Aegean Sea. In addition to an abundance of olive trees, there are also many orchards, aromatic herbs and other flora, making it a botanical paradise. Not for nothing did the Ottomans call it the "Garden of the Aegean".
This is the home of our family and where the history of our company begins with the production of premium extra virgin olive oil that takes advantage of the unique organoleptic properties of the original Kolovi olive variety.
Lesvos has a long history of olive oil production. During the excavations an olive press from the Bronze Age was discovered, dating back to the period 2800-2000 BC. Large areas of olive groves on terraced hills cover almost 30% of the island in the eastern and southern parts and almost 80% of the arable land on the island.
With over eleven million trees and a population of approximately 90,000, Lesvos has by far the largest number of olive trees per capita in the world. Many of these trees are hundreds of years old, as evidenced by their thick and twisted trunks. The cultivation of olive trees and the production of olive oil are therefore one of the most important economic activities in Lesbos.
Lesvos is also known for its natural beauty, its abundance of sunshine, its lively ecosystems that include not only flora but also fauna, and its very diverse landscape, from the lush greenery in the east and south to the wild volcanic west with its petrified forest, one of the largest in the world.
