We’re thrilled to announce that both of our extra virgin cooking oils have been awarded Gold at the 2024 NZ Artisan Awards!

These awards recognise the best of New Zealand-made food and drink, celebrating products that stand out in quality, innovation, and taste. To see both of our oils take home Gold is a huge honour and a testament to the care and craft that goes into every bottle.

• The Good Oil Extra Virgin Rapeseed Oil 1L – Gold Winner
• The Good Oil Extra Virgin High Oleic Sunflower Oil 1L – Gold Winner

Our oils are cold-pressed from carefully selected, 100% New Zealand-grown seeds, ensuring a pure, natural flavour with no additives or heavy processing. Whether you’re frying, roasting, baking, or making dressings, The Good Oil is designed to elevate everyday cooking.

Our Extra Virgin Rapeseed Oil is known for its high smoke point and buttery, neutral flavour—perfect for everything from crispy roast potatoes to golden pan-fried fish. Meanwhile, our High Oleic Sunflower Oil shines with its light, natural sunflower taste, making it an excellent choice for dressings, baking, and high-heat cooking.

Not only have we won at the NZ Artisan Awards, but our Extra Virgin Rapeseed Oil was also named Winner – Best Oil Category in the 2024 Healthy Food Guide Awards!

These awards mean so much to us because they recognise the quality and care that goes into every bottle of The Good Oil. But more importantly, they wouldn’t be possible without you—our loyal customers who continue to support locally grown, cold-pressed oils. Every bottle represents the hard work of local farmers and our commitment to producing the best possible oil, right here in New Zealand.
