Frantoio Shapeshifter

Made from Frantoio and FS17 olives grown at Mardouw Olive Estate near Swellendam at the foothills of the Langeberg Mountains in South Africa's Breede River Valley, this oil is cold-pressed to preserve its well-balanced, herbaceous character. Certified extra virgin with a free acidity of 0.35% and a peroxide value of 3.0 meq/kg, it delivers 692 mg/kg of polyphenols and flavonoids.

Oil Character

Place & provenance

Sense of place

This oil is listed as originating in Swellendam, Western Cape, South Africa.

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 originSwellendam, Western Cape, South Africa
Olive composition

Changing composition

The latest release lists Frantoio as its only recorded cultivar. OlioWise's release data lists different cultivar combinations across harvests.

Why choose it

A release listing one cultivar is useful when you want to explore that variety's typical character. Choose it if you enjoy seasonal variation and seeing how a product changes over time.

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. The changing list does not establish the producer's intention or guarantee a particular flavour difference.
