Cutest tin ever
Item reviewed: 500ml
Review by Kerry L. on 17 December 2013, 1 month after purchase
I love the tin this olive oil comes in, and the olive oil tastes great.
The only drawback is that the tin doesn't pour fantastically. It kind of drips down the side of the tin no matter what angle I pour from. The tin more than makes up for it though, I'm in love!
I would recommend this product to a friend.

Oil doesn't dribble!

Review by Anida V. on 18 February 2014
Wonderful smell and taste! Please make sure when opening the tin to pull the spout out so that it is above the surface of the tin. Slightly tricky but it then works like a charm.

Review by Zach V. on 8 August 2013, 11 days after purchase
Great-tasting local olive oil, and the packaging is lovely. Only problem is that the spout dribbles a bit and makes a mess if you're not careful (but perhaps that's just the one I got).
I would recommend this product to a friend.
Delicious and not bad looking

This olive oil is full of flavour and one of my favourites. For the quality I think it is excellent value and the tin is pretty good looking on your kitchen shelf too.
I would recommend this product to a friend.
The best!

Review by Melissa F. on 11 November 2014
Maybe because a piece of my heart belongs to the Karoo - but this is hands down the best Olive Oil. Always has been my favourite - and honestly, always will be! Crisp clean taste and looks beautiful in the kitchen, too!
I would recommend this product to a friend.
Unique flavour
Item reviewed: 500ml
Review by Rich Brown on 20 November 2014, 9 days after purchase
Nicely packaged. Up there along with classic Spanish oil and Italian oil cans. I think this is a must have oil for its rather unusual flavour. For want of expression somewhat raw but with a clean olive taste. I would not use it for most olive oil applications but for particular salad dressings perhaps? For example to offset sweetness of raw beetroot or apple.
I would recommend this product to a friend.

Review by Alicia B. on 31 December 2014, 16 days after purchase
A very delicious olive oil. I love that it's proudly South African. The tin is very strong and has a lovely spout for pouring that pulls out of the tin and goes back in without any effort.
I would recommend this product to a friend.
Strong lingering taste, perfect olive oil!

Review by Adrienne C. on 13 January 2015, 27 days after purchase
This is my favourite olive oil, as it has a strong, lingering taste, and to have it delivered so efficiently with a personal letter is a real treat!

There were dents in the tin
Item reviewed: 1L
Review by Retha V. on 1 April 2015, 11 days after purchase
The olive oil tastes OK, like all olive oil does, but what was supposed to be a showpiece in my kitchen, is now a bit of a disappointment, as there were dents in both sides of the tin. How does this happen in a box that is packed with inflated plastic cushions?
I would recommend this product to a friend.
Great Tasting Olive Oil

Great tasting olive oil. I would definitely recommend it. I still have to figure out how to pour without spilling oil over the tin - I'll get there.

Every household must have one. I've been looking for the best olive oil which is home grown... Thanks to Yuppiechef, I found one.

The perfect all rounder

Review by Roxanne F. on 15 April 2016, 29 days after purchase
This item has become a staple in our kitchen.
The Prince Albert olive oil has a lovely subtle taste, making it perfect to use in dressings, to cook with, or have by itself with bread :) The tin makes it easy to pour from, and store. AND it's beautiful too!
I would recommend this product to a friend.
Not my type of olive oil

Review by Anonymous on 11 July 2016, 30 days after purchase
Although I love the tin, this oil is not like the Mediterranean Olive Oils that I am used to. It's smell reminds me of freshly cut grass and I find it too potent as a dressing for salads. I will not buy it again. I will however keep the beautiful tin.
I would not recommend this product to a friend.

My husband loves cooking. He is the Master Chef in our house. And he noticed this olive oil and made me aware and it came with a set of small bowls. We used to have a small chocolate mousse for a treat, last night using our additional bowls as a gift. Thank you, Team.

Good quality and flavour. The rectangular tin is perfect for camping or traveling. Better than a round glass bottle!

Non drip pouring
Item reviewed: 500ml
Review by Bernadette L. on 16 November 2018
To stop dripping especially when the tin is full. Instead of having the spout close to the food, turn the tin around so the pourer is the other end, furthest from food. Use this trick pouring from milk cartons too.
I would recommend this product to a friend.

I have used this brand of oil for many years and have grown to depend on their consistent quality. Excellent flavour and because the oil is in a tin, it lasts well.

This olive oil is good and it feels great to support local.
The tin sometimes leaks after pouring, but it doesn't really bother me.

I bought this to decorate my shelves, my kitchen colours include yellow. It is an added bonus that the olive oil is delicious! I plan on purchasing the two smaller sizes too when I finish the contents of this big boy!

Nice oil
Item reviewed: 500ml
Review by Caroline B. on 31 May 2020, 1 month after purchase
The oil itself is great, nice and fresh, pleasant in food. My problem is with the packaging. The pourer is in such a position that it is almost impossible to avoid spilling / wasting and it always leaves quite a bit round the neck of the bottle, which is annoying.
I would recommend this product to a friend.
Good quality olive oil

Review by Anne F. on 20 June 2020, 14 days after purchase
We are very fussy olive oil users.
It must be protected from light which this one is and it must taste good and it definitely fits the bill.
Also, the shape and size of the tin, makes it easy to have on the kitchen counter.
All round, one of the best I have used.
I would recommend this product to a friend.
