This is starting to get boring....... when you are good you are good. Olyfberg won

The oil blend consists of Leccino; Frontoio and Mission. The Mission forms the basis for this oil giving it a grassy; hint of Artichoke and peppery taste. Our range varies from 250ml glass to 25lt drums. The 500ml is exceptionally value for money for only R65.00 per bottle; also available in Woolworths.
