Olea Legacy Named Best Luxury Olive Tree Ownership Experience in Greece by Luxury Lifestyle Awards 2025

Some things are built to last a season. Others are built to last a lifetime. At Olea Legacy, we have always believed that true luxury is measured not in price tags or packaging, but in meaning, permanence, and the stories that endure long after the moment has passed. That belief has guided every tree we have selected, every bottle we have prepared, and every client we have welcomed into the ancient groves of Greece. It is with quiet pride that we share a recognition reflecting this philosophy. Olea Legacy has been named the Best Luxury Olive Tree Ownership Experience in Greece at the Luxury Lifestyle Awards 2025.

What the Luxury Lifestyle Awards represent

The Luxury Lifestyle Awards is an international programme recognising excellence in luxury brands, products and experiences across many countries and categories, assessing quality, exclusivity and the depth of experience delivered to discerning clients worldwide. To be recognised in this context, and specifically as the best in Greece within our category, is a validation that goes beyond our own words. It is a recognition that goes beyond our own words.

What this recognition means to us

When Yiannis Karapiperis founded Olea Legacy, the vision was clear, to create something that had not existed before, not another olive oil brand, and not another agritourism experience, but a living ownership model rooted in centuries of Greek heritage, where a client does not simply receive a product but becomes the steward of an ancient tree. That vision has always been difficult to categorise, since it sits at the intersection of luxury lifestyle, sustainable agriculture, experiential travel, heritage preservation and personal legacy building, and this recognition affirms that what we set out to create is not only real, but recognised beyond our own circle. For every client who has walked through their grove around Greece, held the first bottle from their own tree, or watched their name placed beside a tree that stood long before they were born, this award belongs to them as much as it does to us.

What sets Olea Legacy apart

The recognition reflects what clients experience from the very first conversation with our team, defined stewardship rights in a specific, documented and geolocated olive tree in Greece, not a symbolic gesture or a share in a shared pool of oil, together with personalised extra virgin olive oil from its harvest each year, subject to the season’s yield. Under the stewardship agreement, each bottle comes solely from the harvest of the owner’s designated tree, cold extracted, with laboratory analysis available for each batch, and bottled under the owner’s name, family crest or estate branding. Around that sits a genuinely curated experience in Greece, private grove visits, harvest participation alongside experienced growers, gastronomic tastings and cultural itineraries built around a client’s own tree and its surrounding landscape, and a legacy that can be passed down, dedicated to someone else entirely, or expanded over time from a single tree into a named private estate. These are not simply features. They are the pillars of a category Olea Legacy created and continues to define.

Greece as the backdrop for legacy

There is a reason the olive tree has been Greece’s most enduring symbol for thousands of years. It witnessed the rise of Athenian democracy, crowned Olympic champions with its branches, and fed civilisations across millennia. It is not merely a tree, but a living monument to wisdom, peace, prosperity and continuity. To steward an Olea Legacy tree is to become part of that unbroken chain, a thread woven into a story that began long before you and will continue long after. The Luxury Lifestyle Awards 2025 has recognised that story, and we are honoured to carry it forward.
