Why Is the Lecciana Olive So Special?

The Lecciana olive is a special variety of Italian origin, introduced to Turkish soil for the first time on an industrial scale in the Ezine district of Çanakkale. Its unique genetic structure and high yield capacity make it noteworthy. But what truly sets it apart lies in the natural balance and aromatic character preserved in each fruit harvested from the grove.
One of Lecciana’s most remarkable qualities is its strong resistance to climate changes and common olive diseases. This makes it an attractive option not only for farmers but also for all producers who believe in sustainable agriculture. Its low maintenance requirement also allows for eco-friendly cultivation.
This exceptional variety stands out with its high polyphenol content, offering significant health benefits. Polyphenols are powerful antioxidants that support the immune system and provide anti-aging effects. In this sense, Lecciana olives nourish both body and soul.
The ORE Lecciana brand has successfully matched this olive variety with the ideal soil, setting a globally recognized production model. As a result, a premium extra virgin olive oil rich in both aroma and nutritional value has been made possible.
As evidenced by its first-place award in Japan, the Lecciana olive is not just an agricultural product—it is a visionary step that represents the future of olive oil.
