Thanks to family and friends joining us, we managed to complete the harvest of our 35 trees in only two(!) days.
This year turned out to be a good one and in a few weeks we will be able to enjoy the "fruit of our hard labor".

Our goal is to offer you high-quality, extra virgin olive oil,
crafted in the traditional way it has been for generations –

Selected byColovic is a collaboration with local olive farmers
in the Skradin region, Croatia, who share the passion for
tradition, quality, and sustainability.
Together, we are united under the same venture:
to provide you with traditionally crafted,
high-quality olive oil.
Every bottle comes with a unique story.
Thank you for contributing to a flourishing
small-scale farming community.
The history of olive cultivation spans thousands of years. There is evidence that it was cultivated by the ancient Egyptians and in ancient Mesopotamia. Initially, the extracted oil was used for medicinal purposes and lighting.
After being spread to the Mediterranean region by the Phoenicians, olive oil quickly became a valuable commodity for ancient Greeks and Romans, who valued its nutritional benefits and used it in cooking, skincare, and ceremonies.
Here in the Skradin region, we have been cultivating olives for more than 2000 years.
We sell high-quality olive oil, crafted in the traditional way it has been for generations – no pesticides, no chemicals, just traditional farming.
The olives are harvested by hand and coldpressed.
Our olive varieties are majority of Oblica and Krvavica which are autochthonous from our region.
