Morella Grove's Extra Virgin Olive Oil is crafted from Italian Frantoio and Spanish Arbequina olives, sourced from the sun-kissed groves of the Riverina region in New South Wales. The olives are carefully harvested when ripe and cold-pressed within hours to preserve their natural flavours and reported phenols. This oil has been recognised for its exceptional quality with a Silver Award in 2021 and a Bronze Award in 2022 at the Sydney Royal Fine Food Show. It offers a vibrant balance of grassy, peppery notes and hints of fresh fruit, making it ideal for cooking, drizzling, or as a finishing touch to dressings.

Sensory Profile

Fruitiness 4.3
Fruitiness refers to the aroma and taste of fresh, ripe or green olives in the oil.
Bitterness 3.1
Bitterness is a positive sensory attribute of an EVOO. It can also signal the presence of phenolic compounds.
Pungency 3.4
Pungency is the pleasant peppery or spicy sensation experienced at the back of the throat when tasting olive oil.
Polyphenols 7.1
Polyphenols are naturally occurring compounds found in olives and other plants. In olive oil, reported phenolic content is a chemistry measure that can be associated with bitterness, pungency and oxidative stability; total phenols are not interchangeable with hydroxytyrosol-plus-derivatives measurement used for the EU-authorised wording.
