Benefits of the mountain tea

September 16, 2025January 15, 2026 by berlinoilconnectionNo Comments

Sideritis, known as “mountain tea,” is one of the most beloved herbs of Greek tradition. In Mount Parnon, it grows at high altitudes in pristine natural surroundings, producing an infusion with a rich aroma, mild flavor, and remarkable health benefits. Its consumption has been associated with folk medicine for centuries, while in recent years scientific research has confirmed its therapeutic properties. Traditionally, mountain tea has been used as a natural remedy for colds, flu, and respiratory infections, as it soothes coughs, reduces inflammation, and strengthens the body. At the same time, it calms the stomach, eases indigestion, and acts as a mild relaxant, promoting better sleep. Since it contains no caffeine, it can be consumed daily by both young and old, hot in winter and cold in summer. Science now reinforces what tradition already knew. Mountain tea is rich in flavonoids and polyphenols, substances with strong antioxidant activity. Studies published in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology have shown that its extracts protect...

How to prepare the best greek salad? It is as simple as that

January 19, 2024November 17, 2025 by berlinoilconnectionNo Comments

Several of my friends send me photos of the meals they prepare with our olive oil. It's something I absolutely love and I would like to thank them so much for it. Here we see the traditional, Greek salad. A healthy dish of the Mediterranean diet that should never be missing from our table. How do we prepare a Greek salad for two people? It is very simple: We need two tomatoes (preferably organic), one red onion, half a cucumber (medium size), organic oregano (preferably from the southern Peloponnese), Kalamata olives, a green paprika and optionally feta cheese on top. We chop everything and mix it all together with our extra virgin olive oil and optionally a splash of vinegar. Within a few minutes the Greek salad is on your table....

Vanilla Fir Honey soon from Berlin Oil Connection

A walk in the local market of agricultural products in Skala Laconia was something I had wanted to do for a long time. But something always came up and I postponed it for the next time I would visit this small town located in the heart of the plain of Laconia. For those who don't know, Skala, is one of the most important centers of agricultural production in Laconia. The main agricultural product exported is citrus fruits (mainly oranges). Farmers in Skala produce of course also excellent quality vegetables, such as tomatoes and other vegetables. Skala is a centre of economic life in Laconia. The local market is held every Tuesday in a central point of the town and there are permanent places for producers from Skala and the surrounding villages in the area. The excellent quality olive oil soap that you can buy in Berlin from Berlin Oil Connection is produced by our friend Zoe there. A sunny Tuesday last...
