PROFILO:

George was born in Athens in 1978. He graduated with a Master of Science in Civil Engineering in 2002 and worked as a construction project manager until 2012. For the past ten years, he has developed an in-depth knowledge and appreciation for the cultivation and production of high quality olive oil, after undertaking a number of accredited training programs in Italy and Greece. His understanding of the olive fruit and talent in sensory analysis has driven him to consistently produce EVOOs that have achieved top positions in most international olive oil competitions for his company Hellenic Fields. In 2019 he began his journey of becoming a certified taster, which he completed by achieving the ONAOO Professional Taster Qualification in 2022. Currently he is honing his skills and knowledge even further by participating in tasting panels, as well as expanding his company’s portfolio of EVOOs with new varieties and blends.

Milos Di Iasio

Agricultural entrepreneur and naval engineer.

I joined the ONAOO family in March 2023, when I attended the official technical course, and then continued with the advanced course, which concluded in November 2025.

In the future, I would like to strengthen my connection with the ONAOO family in order to share and promote the culture and tradition of extra virgin olive oil around the world.

Angela Comenale Pinto

Angela has a degree in Psychological Science and Techniques. She is an agronomist, landscape architect and lecturer in agricultural sciences.

Angela oversees the production of her family’s historic olive grove in the Cilento area of Castellabate (SA), using sustainable agronomic practices in the belief that “agriculture can and should be integrated with the natural resources of a territory, with the aim not only of protecting the environment, but also of pursuing the best quality characteristics of the product, contributing to the creation of “well-being in place”, a fundamental element of the health of each of us.” In 2016, he became a member of ONAOO and began his educational journey.

In January 2020, he will complete his studies by obtaining the ONAOO Professional Taster qualification. On May 15, 2024, the Genoa Chamber of Commerce added Angela to the National List of Technicians and Experts of Virgin and Extra Virgin Olive Oils.

Fava Nadia

I have been a member of the Panel in the Marche Region since 2017. I am registered in the list of olive oil technicians and experts at the Ancona Chamber of Commerce, Regional Decree no. 268 dated 09/06/2015.
I attended the professional tasters’ course, lasting three years (2015/2016/2017), at Onaoo. I have participated as a taster in various olive oil events, both at an amateur level and as a jury member. I have collaborated with Onaoo as a coach for both individual and group online courses.

Being part of this association means sharing values of quality, expertise, and continuous training. It is an opportunity for professional growth and qualified exchange, allowing me to share my experience while actively contributing to the promotion of extra virgin olive oil culture.

Mokdad Saad

I began my technical course at ONAOO in September 2022, building a strong foundation in extra virgin olive oil quality standards, and evaluation. In February 2023, I started the ONAOO Professional Tasting Course, further developing my sensory analysis skills and ability to assess EVOO based on official tasting methods. I completed my ONAOO course in November 2025.

Extra virgin olive oil is more than a product to me, it is a symbol of history, culture, and tradition that has been valued for thousands of years across the Mediterranean. From ancient civilizations that used olive oil for food, health, and daily life, to modern producers who preserve traditional methods while improving quality standards, olive oil has always represented purity, resilience, and connection to the land and people.

I am proud to be part of this long heritage by sourcing only exceptional EVOO and promoting oils that are authentic, fresh, and truly representative of their origin. I am committed to continuous learning and to maintaining the highest standards in quality, traceability, and transparency, so customers can experience olive oil the way it was meant to be fresh, healthy, and deeply rooted in history.
