Hillcrest Estate is high in the Strathbogie Ranges in North Central Victoria, where an ideal climate helps to develop an extra virgin olive oil that is both nutritional and yummy.

The two major varieties of olive trees planted in the Hillcrest grove are the traditional Tuscan cultivars, Frantoio and Leccino. These trees produce fruit of medium oil content and outstanding character. Our trees have been selected because of their oil quality rather than oil quantity. The oil derived from the olive varieties in our grove is carefully blended to produce aromatic and medium intensity extra virgin oil. In recent years the Hillcrest blend has received excellent reviews and awards. It is regarded as premium extra virgin oil.
