ABOUT US

The ideal habitat for olive trees is said to require sun, stone, drought, silence and solitude 
Birsen Hanim, has found all five necessary ingredients in the rocky West Anatolian landscape and surrounded by prominent mountains. The climate of hot dry summers, but cool winters, creates the ideal environment for growing varieties of olives, with very individual attributes.

​Birsen Hanim Zeytinligi is a family business and we are personally involved in bringing our superb products to your table. Good olive oil imparts a wonderful flavour to foods, and we select only the best – extra virgin olive oils.



The ancient Anatolian people have taught us a great deal about the traditional ways of successfully cultivating olive trees and how to maintain all the nutrients, flavour, aroma and taste of the olive juice. Premium olives are crushed within 4 hours after harvest and processed without heat to give a delicious, full flavoured oil, with exquisite taste.
