About this product
Bright, grassy and thick, with a peppery kick and a real punch of fresh-cut grass. When it first arrives it is neon green and robust. Over the following months it softens and matures, becoming more rounded, earthy and buttery, with the colour shifting to a deeper gold. It is a living product that changes with time, and both stages are worth cooking with.
Give the can a good shake before use as the oil is unfiltered and contains natural sediment from olive skins and pips. Best on simple food: bread and sea salt, roasted potatoes, or drizzled over anything that lets the oil speak. The 1L illustrated can features artwork by Zena Kay depicting Greek dishes. Harvest date is printed alongside the best before date.

Why it's BRiMM
Why it's BRiMM
Tom Woodgate and Juli Laki moved to the western Peloponnese over fifteen years ago with no business plan and no background in food. They were paid in olive oil for helping with a neighbour's harvest, tasted it fresh from the press, and that was that. They still live and work in the grove. Something Curated called Honest Toil one of the most dynamic premium olive oils in Europe, and it supplies restaurants including Bubala and NOPI in London.
This is 100% Koroneiki, picked early while still firm and green and pressed the same day at the village cooperative. Unfiltered, unblended, nothing added. It is olive juice in its purest form, and it tastes like it.
How to use

About This Brand
Honest Toil is run by Tom Woodgate and Juli Laki from Kyparissia on the western Peloponnese, where they have lived and worked in the grove for over fifteen years. The oil is 100% Koroneiki, cold-pressed within hours of picking at the village cooperative, unfiltered and unblended. They work with neighbouring smallholders in a cooperative format, supporting traditional micro-cultivation where most farmers have no more than a hundred trees. No formal organic certification, but the groves are worked using manual, low-impact methods that long predate industrial farming. Packaging is done locally. A closed-loop 20-litre tub refill system operates for restaurants via SESI Refill.
