Who Produces the World’s Healthiest Olive Oil? It’s Official.

We’ve always known that our olive oil was special, but it’s one thing to feel it in your body and another to have it confirmed on the world stage.

In our very first year entering our Laconiko ZOI at THE WORLD BEST HEALTHY EVOO CONTEST (organized by the Oleocanthal International Society in Malaga, Spain), we didn't just participate—we lifted ZOI to the top of the world. 🏆

Laconiko ZOI — ranked #1 in the world for oleocanthal composition and crafted for those seeking the highest-potency, anti-inflammatory extra virgin olive oil.

We are beyond thrilled to share that Laconiko ZOI was ranked among the World’s 10 Best across every single category.

What is Oleocanthal (and why should you care?)

You might have noticed that signature "peppery kick" at the back of your throat when you sip high-quality olive oil. That’s not just flavor—that’s the Oleocanthal at work.

Oleocanthal is a powerful, naturally occurring anti-inflammatory phenol. Science has shown it offers effects similar to small doses of ibuprofen, acting as a natural boost for your body’s health and wellness routine. Think of it as nature’s way of helping you feel your best, one tablespoon at a time.

Quality You Can Feel

At Laconiko, our mission has always been to bridge the gap between "culinary delight" and "medicinal benefit." Whether you are using our:

  • ZOI: Our medicinal-level powerhouse.
  • Olio Nuovo: Our limited reserve, fresh-pressed treasure.
  • Estate EVOO: Our most awarded everyday high-polyphenol staple.

You aren't just buying oil; you’re investing in your longevity.

We want to extend a massive "Thank You" to our Laconiko family. We produce this oil for you, and we are so proud to bring these trophies home from our groves to your tables.
