Gemlik Black Olives Medium 261–290 – 1 kg Can (Naturally Fermented)

Gemlik Black Olives – The Queen of Turkish Table Olives, 1 kg Can

Anyone who has tasted a genuine Gemlik olive understands why it has been the heart of the Turkish breakfast for generations. Thin skin, large flesh, a pit that almost detaches itself – and a taste that is unmistakably what it is: one of the best table olives in the world.

These olives come from Gemlik, the central cultivation area in the Bursa province, whose olive variety carries its own geographical indication. Alan Zeytin processes only carefully selected fruits from this region – fermented using traditional methods, with only water and salt, without any additives.
