Exceptional Limited Release | First Cold-Pressed | Cloudy + Unfiltered
Discover Rich Glen’s 2026 Limited Release Early Harvest Extra Virgin Olive Oil, now available in a convenient single-serve 15ml sachet.
Crafted from the earliest pick of the season using premium Coratina olives, this year’s harvest delivers a bold, vibrant flavour that’s unmistakably fresh. Known for their naturally high polyphenol content and robust character, Coratina olives create an ultra-premium oil rich in antioxidants with the signature fresh peppery finish Early Harvest is loved for.
Our Early Harvest Extra Virgin Olive Oil contains over 360mg/kg of polyphenols, placing it in the high-polyphenol category. Rich in natural antioxidants, it delivers a fresh, robust flavour profile with the characteristic peppery finish of premium early harvest oils.
Pressed from Coratina green olives weeks before peak ripeness, this cloudy, unfiltered oil captures the pure essence of freshly harvested fruit at its peak.
Last year’s release was awarded GOLD at the London Olive Oil Awards, placing it among the world’s finest, and the 2026 vintage continues that same exceptional standard.
Perfect for lunches, entertaining, travel, grazing boards or enjoying on the go, this single-serve sachet makes it easy to experience the freshness and potency of Early Harvest anywhere.
Expect notes of fresh-cut grass, green almond and artichoke, balanced with a clean, elegant peppery lift, the unmistakable sign of premium early-picked olive oil.

WHERE ARE RICH GLEN OLIVES GROWN?
At Rich Glen, our olives are grown, nurtured, harvested and pressed on the family farm in Yarrawonga, ensuring complete control from grove to bottle. Within just 4 hours of harvest, they are cold pressed to preserve exceptional freshness and quality.
WHY DOES OLIVE OIL TASTE PEPPERY OR SLIGHTLY BITTER, AND IS THE THROAT TICKLE NORMAL?
That signature peppery finish, gentle bitterness, and distinctive throat tickle are all natural and highly desirable. They’re hallmarks of premium early harvest extra virgin olive oil, reflecting high polyphenol levels and signalling freshness, integrity and exceptional quality — something true olive oil lovers seek out.
WHAT GIVES RICH GLEN EARLY HARVEST OLIVE OIL ITS VIBRANT GREEN COLOUR, AND WHEN IS IT HARVESTED?
The vibrant green colour comes naturally from chlorophyll in unripe olives — a visual cue of freshness and quality. Our olives are picked in early autumn, weeks before traditional harvest, to capture peak freshness and naturally high polyphenol levels.
IS RICH GLEN EARLY HARVEST OLIVE OIL EXTRA VIRGIN, AND IS IT HEALTHIER?
Yes. Our early harvest olive oil meets extra virgin standards, meaning it’s mechanically extracted without heat or chemicals and meets strict quality benchmarks, while naturally containing higher levels of antioxidants and polyphenols associated with heart health and anti-inflammatory benefits.
WHY IS RICH GLEN EARLY HARVEST OLIVE OIL MORE EXPENSIVE, AND IS IT A LIMITED RELEASE?
Early harvest olives yield significantly less oil, meaning more fruit and more hands-on care are required to produce each bottle. The result is a small-batch, premium olive oil crafted for flavour, freshness and natural intensity rather than volume.
Produced in limited quantities each season, our early harvest olive oil is a sought-after release, available only while it lasts.
HOW LONG WILL IT LAST AND HOW SHOULD I STORE IT?
When stored correctly in a cool, dark place, tightly sealed and away from heat and direct sunlight, your olive oil will keep well for up to 12 months from bottling. For the best flavour and freshness, we recommend using it within 3 months of opening.
As a nature-led brand, we occasionally refine our formulations. While we aim to keep the ingredient information on our website up to date, please refer to the ingredient list on the product for the most accurate and current details.
