Picual

Leafyridge's early-harvest Picual olives are grown in the Gladstone region of Wairarapa and pressed early in the season to preserve high polyphenol levels. The oil has a rich grassy taste of tomatoes and spices. It carries the Olives New Zealand red Olive Mark certifying extra virgin quality and won a silver medal at the 2025 ONZ Awards.

Oil Character

Place & provenance

Sense of place

This oil is listed as originating in Wairarapa, 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 originWairarapa, North Island, New Zealand
Olive composition

Single variety listed

The latest release lists Picual 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.
