Our good oil is a real bottler

Local producers of “liquid gold” have been honoured for their achievements at the ninth annual NSW Northern Olive Oil Show. While the top honour – Best in Show – went to an oil from Varipodio Estate near Mildura, local growers David and Justine George from Tanglewood Plantation of Moonbi, and Jon and Chris Ness of Limbri’s Olive Nesst, took out the remaining two silver medals of the show. Tanglewood Plantation also received three bronze medals and Olive Nesst another bronze medal, while Mannin Grove at Coonabarabran also scored a bronze. In total, three silvers and 14 bronzes were awarded.
