Huangarua Olives

We are a family run estate specialising in the production of the finest quality, cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil.  After much clearing of almost every species of thistle and many weeds the grove was planted in 2005 in what used to be ‘the bull run’ alongside the Huangarua River.  The soil here shares the same qualities that make Martinborough the internationally renowned wine growing region that it is. 

We currently offer an ‘Italian’ blend incorporating Frantoio, Leccino and Pendolino which tends to be green, grassy and with a strong peppery after-taste, and a second blend based on the Israeli Barnea cultivar pollinated by Manzanillo.  This produces a creamier, more rounded, fruity yellow oil that still manages to have some ‘bite’ and heaps of flavour. 

You can order our oil direct from Jamie Reid.
