Collection: Tawarri Grove

Tawarri Grove is a national award winning olive grove situated on the upper slopes of Towac Pinnacle, part of the Mt Canobolas volcanic complex in Orange, NSW. At an elevation of 1100-1200 metres, it is the highest grove in the country. Our trees enjoy the snowfalls we have each winter, as do the kangaroos and people.

We have a rainfed grove, relying on our 1100 mm median rainfall to support the 3000 trees.
Natural bushland is around the grove. Neighbouring orchards produce cherries, apples, grapes, berry fruit and gourmet foods for Australia.

Like the olives of Tuscany, our olive trees enjoy a touch of snow on the slopes of the Pinnacle, near Mt Canobolas, Orange, New South Wales. The cool climate gives the olives a freshness and piquancy as they develop through the mild summer and autumn.

Our well-balanced fruity oils with a peppery finish, are made with Frantoio, Corregiola, Leccino, Arbequina, Coratina and Manzanillo olives.  Our olives are cold processed immediately after picking, usually in May. We allow the oil to settle for a while, then decant into bottles and casks. Our new season oil is ready by July, to enjoy for the next two years at least!

Our Mazanillo olives will be pickled as table olives – delicious, coloured and black olives to enjoy any time of day
