the elegant one.

This is the very first of our 2024 season olive oil, picked nearly a month early to maximise its flavour and nutritional content. Made from 100% Picual olives, it's characterised by an intense aroma of tomato vine, strawberry tops, peppery herbs and spicy horseradish with a beautifully balanced bitterness that lingers on the palate.

This premium extra virgin olive oil is best enjoyed in its pure form, where its quality and flavour can shine! Think simple salad dressings, dipped with bread or drizzled over anything warm or hot that will result in an incredible aroma release.

product information

Chemistry / Nutrition: 
* Total Biophenols; 197 parts per million. Biophenols are the antioxidants that give extra virgin olive oil its great flavour (pepperiness & bitterness) and incredible health properties. Typical oils range between 120 ppm and 350 pmm.
* Free Fatty Acid (FFA); 0.11%. To be considered extra virgin olive oil the oil must have a free acidity, expressed as free oleic acid, of no more than 0.8 grams per 100 grams and no sensory defects. In a sense, the FFA level indicates the fruit’s condition at the time the oil was extracted. It's essentially a freshness quotient.

Last year, this oil won Gold at both the Australian International Olive Awards and the Terraolivo International Olive Oil Competition, and it's not hard to see why. We used the highest quality fruit we could get our hands on, which was cold-pressed within hours of being picked to preserve its incredible flavour.

Our Premium Promise:

All Mount Zero Olive Oil is cold-pressed (room temperature) just hours after harvest to maintain premium quality. Similarly, our 100% Australian olive oils come from the first pressing of the olives which is what the term 'extra virgin' refers to.

Early Harvest EVOO

This oil is like tasting gold - smooth and buttery with a nice acidity to finish. Definitely worth every cent.
