Top quality extra virgin olive oil is grown & produced from 1300 olive trees on land that was once only used for grazing. 26 acres of high country pasture has been transformed by the Prestons into a landscape rivaling that found in Tuscany. Taste delicious freshly pressed olive oils from around New Zealand, and learn about the different ways you can use this healthy New Zealand-made product. Go for a guided tour around the grove followed with a comparative oil tasting and short description of New Zealand extra virgin olive oils, and then be seated to a generous sized luncheon of antipasto platters served with local wine. Book ‘A Taste of Italy’ in Hanmer Springs and transport yourself.Advance booking required. « less
