Waiheke Blend 2021

NZD $14.00 – NZD $56.00

Freshly mowed grass, mint and artichoke is the aroma. Tastes like apples, mint and pepper with a creamy base. The finish is persistent black pepper. The anti-oxidant levels are sure to be very high.

Initially, this blend was created only from the Olives grown at Stonyridge Vineyard but now cuttings from these trees have been established at Rangihoua and one other grove on Waiheke to create this most unique blend. The trees are believed to be Verdale, Mission and Ascalano.

The oil has a good creamy finish and is delicious for dipping, aioli and on green beans, asparagus, mesclun salad and white meat. A versatile EVOO which can be used in most culinary applications.

See Tasting Notes below.

Our Waiheke Blend Extra Virgin Olive Oil has been a consistent winner notably “supreme Champion” winner in 2012 and in 2014 and 2016, voted Gold & Best In Class winner – see awards below.

Koroneiki 2021

**** LIMITED EDITION – WHILE STOCKS LAST ****

This year the Koroneiki has a very fruit aroma of green banana, passionfruit and hay.

The initial taste is banana, then apple, nasturtium and a lingering radish finish.

Light and oh so floral, this oil dances on the palate and conjures up images of ancient feasts, flower gardens and rolling meadows.

Great with tomatoes, pasta, and any Asian style salads or vegetable dishes. Also amazing on warm bread, just savour the taste!
