Our Story
Truly Greek was born on a warm Greek Summer, under the shade of olive trees in our Greek Village, Aghios Nikolaos, in 2018. Founders, Peter Marules and his cousin Kyriakos Maroulakos, desire to introduce the rich Mediterranean diet, taste, and feeling to food enthusiasts, all over the world. Culinary traditions, recipes, and products we grew up with, come from Greece to your table.
100% Pure Greek Olive Oil
Our Olive Oil is made only with Olives from Lakonia Greece.
Olives are pressed within 1 to 4 hours of being picked from the tree, guaranteeing the best flavor and lowest acidity possible!
Life with Truly Greek







-
At Truly Greek, we aren’t just sharing products, we’re sharing our heritage and the flavors that have shaped our lives for generations. Nestled amidst rolling hills and silvery-green olive groves, the village of Agios Nikolaos is where our story begins. This picturesque Greek village, with its stone houses, winding lanes, and the distant lull of the Aegean Sea, is more than just a place—it’s the heart of our tradition.
As a family business rooted in this sun-drenched corner of Greece, every bottle of olive oil reflects our deep connection to the land, the olive groves, and the age-old customs that echo through Aghios Nikolaos. Our passion for Greece is woven into every step, from the olive harvest to the swift pressing of 1 to 4 hours that preserves each olive’s vivid taste and nourishing qualities.
We invite you to join our table and experience the vibrant, wholesome Mediterranean diet—a celebration of good food, good health, and the joy of sharing. From our family in Agios Nikolaos to yours, welcome to the true taste of Greece.

Once harvested, they are pressed immediately, within 1 and 4 hours to be exact, to reduce any unwanted acidity and preserve the olive’s freshness and develop an exquisite flavor profile.

Malvasia
Malvasia aka Monemvasia is among the most famous municipalities in Lakonia. It is a well-known destination for its unique medieval castle, which is situated on the rock, and it is seen only by the sea. An old bridge connects the rock with the new town built later. Monemvasia in Greek means: “there is only one way to get in” (Mon’ – Emvasia). Poets and painters lived in the castle and when Greece was at war, it was a fortress. Our Village, Aghios Nikolaos refers to this municipality and it is 10klm distance from this amazing piece of our cultural heritage.
