Leccino

Leccino olives grow at Hihi Estate on the Far North coast of New Zealand, where the family presses them on-site soon after each harvest. The 2026 harvest is currently being picked, yielding an oil that is green and unctuous with a strong peppery finish. The estate suggests serving it simply over warm crusty toasted bread.

Oil Character

Place & provenance

Sense of place

This oil is listed as originating in Northland, North Island, New Zealand.

Why choose it

Choose a clearly identified origin when local identity, traceability and connection to a particular growing area matter to you.

Worth knowing

Origin can make an oil distinctive, but does not by itself guarantee quality or a particular flavour.

Listed originNorthland, North Island, New Zealand
Olive composition

Single variety listed

The latest release lists Leccino as its only recorded cultivar.

Why choose it

A release listing one cultivar is useful when you want to explore that variety's typical character.

Worth knowing

One listed cultivar does not record a percentage, so it should not be treated as proof of 100% composition without a source saying so.
