Sandhurst has been sharing olives from around the world for over 30 years – Mimmo Lubrano is one of Australia’s foremost olive experts. Olives were amongst the first products brought to the Australian market by Sandhurst and they remain at the heart of the range.

Sandhurst supports growers both in Australia and around the world who share the Lubrano family’s passion for quality. Sandhurst Australian kalamata olives are grown on family farms in the fertile surrounds of Adelaide, SA. Here, the climate closely resembles the Mediterranean cool winters and long hot summers that allow olives to develop their distinctive natural flavours and healthy oil content.

While some olive producers might use chemical additives, Sandhurst favours traditional methods with natural products to preserve the olives. The olives are fermented for 12-14 weeks in a special brine. The precise brine recipes are well guarded family secrets and have been used by the family for over 100 years.
