Throughout the wine-producing regions of the world, there is a natural association between the olive grove and the vineyard.

At Tokara, this relationship thrives. The family-owned Stellenbosch wine and olive estate is widely recognised as a producer of world-class extra virgin olive oil (EVOO). Tokara’s olive oil journey began in 2000 when co-founder Anne-Marie Ferreira decided to produce single-variety oils that would set them apart from the handful of South African olive oil producers at the time. Tokara focuses on Tuscan varieties, each selected for a distinctive character and flavour. The range comprises two single-variety oils: the delicately flavoured

Mission and the full-flavoured Frantoio, as well as two more intense multi-varietal

blends. Frantoio is the foundation of Tokara’s full-flavoured blended olive oils. It’s a medium to intense oil with green grassy notes and a nutty aftertaste. The Mission variety is mild and gentle with a finely balanced grassy, herbaceous character and a walnut aftertaste, making it an all-round oil. The multi-varietal and Estate EVOO are carefully blended to bring together the best characteristics of the various olive varieties. You’ll find notes of olive leaf, rocket, artichoke and a lovely

herbaceous character. tokara.com
