Waterleliefontein
Waterleliefontein EVOO 1l in a tin
All the olives used to make the Waterleliefontein Extra Virgin Olive Oil are grown on their farm. The region between the Bot River and the Houw Hoek Mountains has its own unique terroir (a term borrowed from the French winemakers), the local soil and weather conditions impart specific characteristics on the flavour of the oil.
The distinctive blend is made from the five cultivars grown at Waterliliefontein – Mission, Manzanilla, Nochelara, Ogliarola and Kalamata. The olives are carefully hand-picked and taken to a nearby olive mill to be extracted. The oil is then allowed to settle in air-tight stainless steel tanks and finally, it is bottled and delivered. The final product is a smooth, golden oil, with hints of freshly cut grass and a tantalizing peppery finish.
