COKINOS' OLIVE OIL - Key Persons


Constantine Gus Vlahos

Constantine Gus Vlahos was born in Greece in 1861 and lived in Sparta. In the late 1800s he immigrated to America with his family and lived in the Houston, Texas area. Michael Cokinos purchased an olive orchard in the region his great-grandfather was raised so he could preserve his olive-growing traditions. Great care is taken to preserve the knowledge and passion for creating extra virgin olive oil that he would be proud to share.
