Olive Oil

HVC was one of the first South African producers to release single varietal olive oils, such as Mission, Favolosa, Frantoio, Leccino and Coratina. Each displays unique characteristics with regard to flavour, fruitiness and intensity.

These olive oils will still be released in future under the Het Vlock Casteel label, alongside our flagship olive oil blend of Frantoio, Leccino and Coratina which combines all of these characteristics in one unique oil. Lemon infused olive oil is also made.
