From Mediterranean Roots to Oslo's Heart

We are two chefs who met while working at the Sommerro Hotel in Oslo — one from Slovenia, the other from Greece. Brought together by our shared passion for food, we became friends in the kitchen and decided to carry the flavors of our Mediterranean roots to the tables of Oslo.

How it started

A Frustration Sparked an Idea

We soon realised we shared the same frustration: in Norway, quality ingredients like olive oil are available, but they’re often overpriced and lack transparency.

That’s why we founded Atromitos AS — “Atromitos” meaning fearless in Greek — to bring honest, authentic olive oil to Oslo at a fair price.

Our story

our philosophy

Fearless at the Source

We go directly to the farmers — walking the groves, tasting their oils, and building trust face to face. By importing small batches of fresh, honest, premium products with no middlemen, we ensure both quality and fairness at every step.

From Their Hands to Your Kitchen

We collaborate with family-owned producers who bottle for us directly at the source. This way, the same care and authenticity found in their groves is delivered straight to both home cooks and professional kitchens across Norway.

How to Taste Extra Virgin Olive Oils

If you've ordered or received our olive oils and want to have a proper tasting for yourself or with some friends or family, here's a breakdown of how to do it and get more out of your oils!

  • 1st

    First, pour 1 tsp of one varietal of olive oil into each cup/small glass.

  • 2nd

    Second, place the cup in the palm of your hand. Cover the top with your other hand and rub the cup on your palm for up to thirty seconds, warming the olive oil slightly. This releases more of the aroma. Keep the cup covered until you’re ready to sniff.

  • 3rd

    Third, sniff by placing your nose to the edge of the glass, inhale deeply and identify the aromas within the oil.

  • 4th

    Fourth, slurp noisily through your mouth to emulsify the oil and help spread it through your mouth. This will help release the different natural flavours.

  • 5th

    Lastly, Swallow and take note of the flavours you taste. Note the fruitiness, bitterness, and pungency of each olive oil.
