My favourite variety is the peppery Picual olive oil, but it can be difficult to find at times.
Which is why I was thrilled to find this online at Allpress Olive Groves on Waiheke Island (near Auckland).
The Free Fatty Acid rating shows the quality of the oil (it must be below 0.8 to be called Extra Virgin - this is 0.18).
Allpress state their locally grown olives are processed fresh without chemicals or excessive heat.
A thankyou card with my order showed a view of Verdale Grove on Waiheke Island.
I've read that including some quality fats in your diet helps to stop food cravings.
Hopefully using this oil will have that effect!
