Kalamata Olive Tree

kalamata

Kalamata olives are the best olive type for food is considered the Greek "Kalamata Olive" (Calamon Olive), an almond-shaped Greek olive that ranges in length from about 1/2 to 1 inch.
Kalamata olives (Calamon) are a dark eggplant color and have an excellent flavor that can be rich and fruity. They're often slit to allow the wine vinegar "Marinade" in which they're soaked to penetrate the flesh. Kalamata olives are marketed packed in either olive oil or vinegar.

Greek olives are not treated with lye. They are strong tasting because they are just packed in dry salt, or pickled in brine for 6 to 12 months (where they undergo a process of lactic fermentation), and finally packed in fresh brine

This picture is from last year trees, they are more mature with 4 to 5 inch trunks and 5 feet. Sculpted with low branching. Kalamata fruit is highly prized for its unique flavor. Kalamata trees are always in short supply.
