The aim of the present study was to characterize and classify olive oils from Western Greece according to cultivar and geographical origin, based on volatile compound composition, by means of Linear Discriminant Analysis. A total of 51 olive oil samples were collected during the harvesting period 2007-2008 from six regions of Western Greece and from six local cultivars. Forty-five of the samples were characterized as extra virgin olive oils. The analysis of volatile compounds was performed by Headspace Solid Phase Microextraction-Gas Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry (HS-SPME-GC/MS). Fifty-three (53) different volatile compounds were tentatively identified and semi-quantified. Using selected volatile compound composition data (selection was based on the application of ANOVA to total volatiles to determine those variables showing substantial differences among samples of different geographical origin/cultivar), the olive oil samples were satisfactorily classified according to geographical origin (87.2%) and cultivar (74%).
