515 produces their Tuscan Extra Virgin Olive Oil from a blend of Frantoio, Leccino, and Picholine olive varieties. The oil is made from 100% Australian olives that are hand-picked and bottled in small batches without preservatives or chemical sprays.

The oil has received recognition at the Australian International Olive Awards, where judges noted green banana, apple, oregano, vanilla biscuit, and mint leaf aromas that transfer well to the palate. The tasting profile includes a buttery, toasted, and avocado finish with low to medium bitterness and pungency, concluding with white pepper and ginger notes.

515 describes the oil as having subtle fruit, nut, and spice flavours characteristic of the Tuscan varieties used in the blend.

Sensory Profile

Fruitiness 4.5
Fruitiness refers to the aroma and taste of fresh, ripe or green olives in the oil.
Bitterness 3.6
Bitterness is a positive sensory attribute of an EVOO. It can also signal the presence of phenolic compounds.
Pungency 3.6
Pungency is the pleasant peppery or spicy sensation experienced at the back of the throat when tasting olive oil.
Polyphenols 6.3
Polyphenols are naturally occurring compounds found in olives and other plants. In olive oil, reported phenolic content is a chemistry measure that can be associated with bitterness, pungency and oxidative stability; total phenols are not interchangeable with hydroxytyrosol-plus-derivatives measurement used for the EU-authorised wording.
