About us
We came for the sun and stayed for the olives. What started as a trip to visit family turned into an obsession we didn’t see coming.
We came to Crete chasing island sun and accidentally became olive oil nerds. While visiting family, we were given the most luxurious olive oil we'd ever tasted, poured casually into reused plastic water bottles. We couldn’t find any olive oil in New York City that tasted like this beautiful oil every familiy in Crete keeps by the stove. Kurio exists because the global food system prioritizes scale over integrity, and somewhere along the way, fresh became a rare commodity. Olive oil this alive is worth obsessing over.
Our journey has just begun, and we cannot wait to bring you along for the ride. For now, follow us on Instagram @kurio.organic.

Did you know: Olives, when farmed well, are a naturally regenerative product? The byproduct makes a super high anti-oxidant animal feed
