Every flavour of olive oil imaginable
A short drive from the township of Horsham and right beneath the rock face of the Grampians National Park, you can discover some of the best olive oil Victoria has to offer at Grampians Olive Co. (Toscana). At over 60 years old this olive plantation is home to nearly 50,000 olive trees. Grampians Olive Co. uses part of this plantation to mix, match and infuse the funkiest flavours together to give you a large variety of infused oils to try such as blood orange or truffle flavour (mmm sounds fancy)! Try them for yourself at their farm gate or pick up a bottle from a stockiest around Horsham.

This will pair perfectly with the house made giant share plates that owner Sheila can personally prepared for you on arrival.
