olive oil

<table border=0 cellpadding=2 cellspacing="0"><tr><td>
<pre>Dear All

Koroneiko olives have been consistently recognised as producing high quality
olive oil. Oil from Sitia Crete has one awards in Solinas Competitions. In Crete
the oil is generally a stand alone product and not blended with other olive
oils.

The addition of Barnea a fairly light bland oil will dilute the flavour of
koroneiki so I am not surprised that it is winning competitions. I have planted
20 trees myself out of 100 trees that I have planted on mt 10acre property in
Chittering WA. Of course I will hand pick these - so I should thet are worth
their weight in gold.

Regarding large scale commercial oils with Koroneiki - Until the industry gets
into full production - why not have an international blend oil - say imported
Koroneiki + Local (Picual + Leccino + Barnea) - food for thought. This overcomes
the problem of what is Australian.
