Filema – Green Olives with Almond 250 g
At a Greek table, there is always something to snack on “in between” – olives, cheese, bread, and a few simple additions. Filema Green Olives with Almond are a classic mezze: firm olives with a noticeable, slightly buttery note and a crunchy almond inside. Perfect for snacks, cheese boards, and salads, when you want to serve something simple yet refined.
Origin and Ingredients
