ar-be School
Bar-be School: Ministry Of Food Pukara Style!
With the beginning of Summer and the aroma of char grill barbeques starting to tantalise our tastebuds what better time to host our own Bar-be School, Pukara Style!
During September as part of the Hunter Olive Association initiative, ‘Feast of the Olive’, we held our Bar-be-School cooking classes. The day was a fantastic success with keen participants coming from all over the Hunter Valley to gain insight into how to master their own barbeques at home. The day was all about gaining professional tips, tricks and short cuts from our expert chefs in a great social environment. The lesson included how to use the roasting hood on your BBQ for maximum effect and taste, matching BBQ foods to great local wines from Two Rivers Winery in the Upper Hunter Valley, pairing our world class oils and vinegars with the right dishes to savour the infused taste of our oils and of course the ultimate way to cook the perfect steak! Around forty people attended the day out here at the Pukara Estate grove, which was a great hit with all those who participated.
 
#New Varieties
New Varieties on the Horizon !
In October this year, two of our staff (Natalie & Adam) took it upon themselves to combine a well earned holiday to California with a couple of days checking out the olive harvest which was well underway during their visit. The harvest was particularly interesting in some of the groves they visited, as they were planted with ‘new’ varieties that we are currently also trialing at Pukara Estate.
Four years ago we planted a trial plot with five varieties that were showing great promise across the industry. Over the past four seasons, two varieties in particular (Arbequina & Koroneiki) have proven to be outstanding in their yield and flavour profile on our site at Pukara Estate. We were very happy to find that excellent results were also being achieved with these two varieties in California. These varieties also lend themselves towards a more intensive production style, referred to as ‘high density’ planted at approximately 1,000 trees per hectare. Pukara Estate is currently planted at a density of approximately 400 trees per hectare. High density plantings are now beginning to appear all over the olive growing world with new plantings going into groves in Chile, Argentina, USA (California), Spain and Australia. It is our intention next spring to replant some of the older, less productive trees at Pukara Estate with some Arbequina and Koroneiki in a ‘high density grove’.
