Juno Olives Moraiolo Single Variety Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Juno Olives • 🇳🇿 • Wairarapa • Updated 2025-10-25
This rare oil is produced exclusively from the Moraiolo olive cultivar.
Juno Olives may be one of the only producers in the Southern Hemisphere to offer this rare variety. It's availability is further challenged by the difficulty in harvesting the Moraiolo trees, having produced a crop only 3 times in 25 years. The fruit is particularly hard to harvest, as it does not separate easily from the tree.
