"A high-phenolic oil that has unfortunately turned the corner. It has a great 'kick' and a clean feel, but the fresh fruit notes have been replaced by the classic scents of oxidation (crayons and old nuts)."

Lisadurne Hill Angus Extra Virgin Olive Oil is an Australian product. Tasting notes from judges: Moderately complex with fresh green aroma of cut grass, artichoke, and floral notes. Transfers to the mouth with creamy texture. Moderately high bitterness and black pepper pungency. Persistent and reasonably complex, though lacking in balance and harmony.

Polyphenols are naturally occurring compounds found in olives and other plants.

Measured Sensory analysis from laboratory testing.

Freshness & season

Harvest freshness

Harvest timing helps you judge an oil's age, while filtration and release style affect how quickly it is best enjoyed.

Why choose it

Choose a recent, clearly dated release when you want the most vivid expression of its aromas and flavour.

Worth knowing

A harvest date does not reveal how the oil was stored, so date is an important signal rather than a guarantee of condition.

Product informationHarvested 1 May 2025
Phenols & structure

High phenolic

The latest release lists 503 mg/kg total phenols.

Why choose it

Higher-phenol oils often suit customers who enjoy assertive bitterness and peppery pungency, and phenols can contribute to oxidative stability.

Worth knowing

A total-phenol result alone does not establish eligibility for a specific regulated health claim.
