Certified extra virgin

All our oil is certified extra virgin. That means it’s passed rigorous testing from Olives New Zealand for strict chemical, sensory, labelling and bottling criteria.

Grown organically and off-grid

We are passionate about the environment and live off-grid using renewable energy sources.

We’re also passionate about following organic principles, and our property is now fully certified organic through BioGro NZ. Our 2023 harvest will proudly display the BioGro label.
