The ancient Greeks held a prominent place in their culture for their sacred tree, the olive tree. From the "Kallistefanos Elaia" (meaning the olive tree perfect enough to cut the Olympians’ wreaths from) - planted by the legendary Hercules himself – they used to cut branches with a gold scythe to form wreaths, as a high honor to the Olympians. The glorious ceremony of their coronation took place in sacred temples and luxurious stadia made of white Pentelic marble...: it is the symbolic moment of the spiritual union between mortals and gods. This is the story that inspired “Kallistefi” as our company name, the golden olive wreath as the logo, and the marble facade of our bottle: all together, they form a humble tribute to our ancestors' cultural heritage, as they were the ones to first record in medicine archives the benefits offered by the consumption of olive oil.

The mythical Hercules was the hero of Greek mythology who, holding a bat of wild olive wood for a weapon, concluded his famous twelve feats. The "Orphics" called him "Dragon Elikto". This characterization was attributed to his superhuman strength, but also to his versatility and the characteristic way he moved on the battlefield, elements that ultimately brought him victory, every time..!
