Terra Centuria
OUR STORY
Terra Centuria cooperative is specialized in producing organic high polyphenol extra virgin olive oil from Slovenian Istria.
We believe our oil will leave you enchanted!
Centuria (from Latin centvria, from Latin centum – hundred) was a tactical unit of the Roman army that originally numbered approximately 100 men.
Our Cooperative: A Journey of Love and Passion
A beautiful olive grove brought us together, where we invest and share our love for the Istrian land, olive trees, and a more sustainable approach to nature. Our work blends thousand-year-old olive tree cultivation traditions with modern expertise, where we strive for the best, for us and for the environment, while preserving traditional quality.
Passion
When daily care for olive oil transforms into something greater. When we dedicate ourselves to every aspect of producing premium high-polyphenol extra virgin olive oil – from the day we plant the tree, to observing the first flowers, leaves, and healthy green fruits, to the first drops produced under expert supervision. That’s when our hearts race.
Production
Our olive oil reflects our choices – when we harvest the oil, how we pick the olives, how we press them, how we store them. Our oil undergoes chemical and organoleptic analyses, which affirm its health benefits.
Mission
To inspire people in Slovenian Istria to plant and cultivate olive trees in an organic way, to take care of their grove with dedication, and to process premium olive oils suitable for cuisine, medicine, or natural cosmetics through shared knowledge and strength.
