Made from early-harvest Frantoio olives grown on the sun-soaked Kakariki block, this oil is selected for its most grassy and peppery character. The single-varietal pressing delivers a medium-heat profile with grassy, peppery notes, suited to drizzling over summer salads, fresh tomatoes and mozzarella or used as a finishing oil for dipping and cooking. The olives are picked earlier in the season to capture this vibrant style.
