Oruaiti River Olives Extra Virgin Olive Oil is a Tuscan blend sourced from Mangonui, Northland. Made from Frantoio, NZ J5, and Leccino olives, harvested early in the season and locally pressed to preserve their vibrant qualities. This oil features herbaceous and buttery notes with a spicy peppery finish. Recognised for its excellence, it secured a gold medal at the 2024 Oliveti Northland Olive Oil awards and was named Best of Show in 2022. This award-winning olive oil exemplifies the exceptional quality of Northland-grown olives.
