Grown by Marion and Bede Mackenzie on a small farm at Bellthorpe near Maleny, the Mackenzies have been making their avocados into Maleny Avocado Oil since 2007.
- No chemical sprays used on trees
The oil is processed by an olive grower near Crows Nest. The oil is classed as Extra Virgin, Cold Pressed, Unrefined oil. It is brought to you as it comes from the flesh of the fruit. It is a beautiful golden green colour with a very slight avocado / nutty fragrance.
Avocado oil has a really clean taste which is rich and buttery. It has a delicate flavour which enhances and brings out the natural flavours of other foods, instead of dominating them. It does this in all cases from salads to deep fried food.
The oil can be used for all purposes including roasting, baking, stir frying, grilling meat, fish poultry, baking vegetables or drizzling over steamed vegies or as a salad dressing. Makes great muffins, cakes and everything else.
Avocado Oil brings out the natural flavours of the food you are cooking.
