Fenolico High Polyphenol Olive oil 500ml (936 mg/kg Polyphenols at Harvest)

$75.00

Not all extra virgin olive oils are created equal.

Polyphenols are naturally occurring plant compounds that give fresh olive oil its vibrant green flavour, pleasant bitterness and characteristic peppery finish at the back of the throat. They are also the compounds that have attracted the greatest scientific interest for their antioxidant properties. Early-harvest olive oils, such as this Coratina variety, naturally contain much higher levels of polyphenols than many supermarket olive oils.

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has approved the health claim that "olive oil polyphenols contribute to the protection of blood lipids from oxidative stress." To qualify, an olive oil must provide at least 5 mg of hydroxytyrosol and its related compounds per 20 g of olive oil (approximately 1½ tablespoons). That's why independent laboratory testing matters as it provides confidence in the quality and polyphenol content of the oil you're buying, rather than relying on marketing claims alone.

This early-harvest, cold-extracted Coratina extra virgin olive oil has been independently tested and contains 936 mg/kg total polyphenols, together with an exceptionally low acidity (0.21%) and low peroxide value (2.0 meq O₂/kg), indicators of freshness and careful production. Expect a beautifully vibrant olive oil with fresh grassy notes, a pleasant bitterness and a peppery finish, a hallmark of an oil naturally rich in polyphenols.

Suggested serving: Enjoy 1 tablespoon (approximately 20 mL) daily as part of a healthy Mediterranean-style diet. For maximum flavour and to preserve its delicate polyphenols, drizzle over salads, steamed vegetables, soups, legumes, eggs, avocado, fish or grilled meats, or simply enjoy with sourdough bread.

Avoid cooking or frying with this oil, as heat gradually reduces its delicate polyphenol content. Save it for finishing dishes and enjoy its fresh flavour every day.

Nolans Road Organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil 1.5L

From $75.00

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).

Measuring Cup Glass 20ml

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.

Durability and Longevity

Heat Resistance: Glass can withstand high temperatures, making it suitable for measuring hot liquids without the risk of warping or melting. Plastic measuring cups may deform or degrade when exposed to heat.
Scratch Resistance: Glass is less prone to scratching compared to plastic. Scratches on plastic can harbor bacteria, making them harder to clean and less hygienic over time.
Longevity: Glass measuring cups tend to have a longer lifespan if handled with care. They are less likely to degrade or wear out compared to plastic cups.

Accuracy and Precision

Measurement Markings: The measurement markings on glass measuring cups are often more precise and easier to read. They are usually etched or printed in a way that resists fading. Plastic markings can wear off over time, leading to inaccurate measurements.
Weight and Stability: Glass measuring cups are generally heavier and more stable on countertops, reducing the risk of tipping over and ensuring more accurate measurements.

Environmental Impact

Recyclability: Glass is highly recyclable and can be recycled repeatedly without loss of quality. Plastic recycling is less efficient, and many types of plastic are not recyclable or degrade in quality after recycling.
Sustainability: Using glass reduces the demand for plastic, which is derived from non-renewable fossil fuels. Choosing glass supports a more sustainable and environmentally friendly lifestyle.

Aesthetic and Practical Considerations

Aesthetics: Glass measuring cups often have a more classic and aesthetically pleasing appearance, fitting well with various kitchen decors.
Microwave and Dishwasher Safe: Glass measuring cups are typically safe for use in microwaves and dishwashers, adding to their convenience. Some plastics are not microwave or dishwasher safe, limiting their usability.
