Accurately measure your herbal tonics and tinctures with 2.5ml increments. This glass measuring cup provides precise measurements for therapeutic dosing.
Why glass? When choosing between a glass measuring cup and a plastic measuring cup, several factors come into play, including health, durability, accuracy, and environmental impact. Here are the key reasons why a glass measuring cup is often preferred over a plastic measuring cup:
Health and Safety
- Chemical Leaching: Glass is non-reactive, meaning it does not leach chemicals into your food or liquids. Plastic, on the other hand, can release harmful chemicals such as BPA (Bisphenol A) or phthalates, especially when exposed to heat or acidic substances.
- Odour and Stain Resistance: Glass does not absorb odors or stains from foods and liquids, maintaining its cleanliness and safety over time. Plastic can retain odours and become stained, which can affect the taste and purity of what you're measuring.

Nolans Road Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil is made from certified organic olives, allowing for a unique flavour intensity each growing season. After pressing, the oils are naturally settled and evaluated, then blended with other varieties from their Hynam farm and partner growers to achieve their signature style. Grown in Hynam near Naracoorte on the South Australia's Limestone Coast, Nolans Road prides itself on quality and sustainability.
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Only olive oil of the highest quality can be called “Extra Virgin”. Legally, an olive oil can only be called “Extra Virgin” if it passes strict chemical analysis tests in an industry-accredited laboratory. Nolans Road olive oils are assessed every season and fall well within the legal boundaries of the definition.
2024 NOLANS ROAD ROBUST
Nolans Road Robust Olive Oil has been widely acclaimed by chefs and food writers right from our first bottling in 2004. Bursting with vitality, food lovers delight in the flavour it brings to their food. UK television host Nigella Lawson says it’s her favourite olive oil and Australia’s doyenne of food writers, Stephanie Alexander, described it in The Age newspaper as “outstanding”.
Lovers of this style of extra virgin olive oil are seeking the green, grassy, peppery characteristics that come from our Italian varieties of olives specially picked at the beginning of the harvest season (April or May depending on what the growing season has been like). Those Italian varieties – frantoio, leccino, signora and pendolino – also give the oil its signature fragrant nose up front.
Nolans Road Robust is bottled unfiltered. Once they are pressed, they leave their oils to settle naturally over the winter months before they are carefully blended to ensure a balanced, delicious extra virgin olive oil. Robust Olive oil matches well with strong, punchy flavours – rocket salads, rich soups and stews, red meats or just grab a chunk of the best bread you can find and dunk it straight in a dipping bowl of the good stuff!
Nolans Road Robust 2024 Test Results: Free Fatty Acid content: 0.1% (Maximum allowed 0.80%) Peroxide value: 9 (Maximum allowed 20).
NOLANS ROAD DELICATE
This extra virgin olive oil is carefully crafted from a blend of verdale, benito, and arbequina olives. Its well-rounded flavour profile boasts gentle floral aromas, a hint of sweetness, and a slight peppery finish. As with all their oils, it is bottled unfiltered. The fruity and creamy taste of Nolans Road Delicate makes it incredibly versatile, perfect for both dipping and baking.
Nolans Road Delicate 2024 Test Results: Free Fatty Acid content: 0.2% (maximum allowed 0.80%) Peroxide value: 7 (Maximum allowed 20).

How To Use Smudge Sticks
Step 1: Preparation
- Choose Your Space: Select a space where you can safely burn the smudge stick. Ensure there are no flammable materials nearby.
- Open Windows: Open a window or door to allow the negative energy to leave the space and fresh air to enter.
- Set Your Intention: Take a moment to set a clear intention for your smudging ritual. This could be to cleanse negative energy, bring in positive vibes, or simply to refresh the space.
Step 2: Lighting the Smudge Stick
- Hold the Smudge Stick: Hold the smudge stick at a 45-degree angle, with the tip pointing downward.
- Light the End: Use a lighter or match to light the tip of the smudge stick. Let it catch fire and allow it to burn for about 20-30 seconds.
-
Blow Out the Flame: Gently blow out the flame so that the smudge stick smolders and produces smoke. The tip should glow red, and a steady stream of smoke should rise.
Step 3: Smudging Your Space
- Walk Around the Space: Holding the smudge stick over a fireproof dish to catch any ash, walk slowly around the space you wish to cleanse. Move clockwise around the room, paying special attention to corners, doorways, and windows where energy tends to stagnate.
- Use a Feather or Fan: If you have a feather or fan, use it to guide the smoke into the areas you want to cleanse. Gently waft the smoke throughout the space.
- Recite a Mantra or Prayer: As you move through the space, you may wish to recite a mantra, prayer, or affirmation that aligns with your intention.
Step 4: Smudging Objects
- Hold the Object: Hold the object you wish to cleanse in the smoke. This could be a crystal, piece of jewelry, or any other personal item.
- Pass Through the Smoke: Pass the object through the smoke several times, ensuring it is thoroughly enveloped.
Step 5: Smudging Yourself or Others
- Waft Smoke: To cleanse yourself or another person, waft the smoke around the body, starting from the feet and moving upward towards the head.
- Set an Intention: While doing this, set an intention for purification and protection.
Step 6: Extinguishing the Smudge Stick
- Press into Dish: Once you have finished smudging, gently press the smudge stick into the fireproof dish to extinguish the embers.
- Ensure it is Out: Ensure the smudge stick is completely out and not burning before storing it.
Safety Tips
- Always stay present and mindful when using a smudge stick.
- Keep water nearby in case of emergencies.
- Never leave a burning smudge stick unattended.
