Agrumato is the traditional Italian method of pressing citrus fruits with olives to create an delectable zesty olive olive oil.
Here at Mount Zero, once a year we press Limes, Lemons and Mandarins, Yuzu and Chillies with Frantoio olives to create our Agrumato range. And the result is amazing - our range is a hit with chefs, home cooks and award judges across the country.

Yuzu Pressed Extra Virgin Olive Oil - This limited-release olive oil is the result of an exciting collaboration with Mountain Yuzu, specialty citrus growers based in North-East Victoria. Whole yuzu fruit and olives are cold-pressed together resulting in an incredibly aromatic and unique flavoured oil. Particularly delicious paired with raw fish or ceviche, use to dress Japanese-style salads or as a fabulous twist in a olive oil cake recipe!
Chilli Pressed Extra Virgin Olive Oil - Unlike many chilli oils which use heat to aid the infusion process, our Chilli Pressed EVOO is made in the traditional Italian 'Agrumato' style, where whole chillies and olives are cold-pressed together. This results in an oil with a beautiful burnished orange hue, along with fresh and crunchy capsicum-like flavours as well as a warming heat that builds slowly. It pairs wonderfully with pasta, grilled seafood, dressings, pizzas and just about anything else!
