The Extra Virgin rapeseed oil, which is pressed and bottled on Gregor’s family farm at Glendaveny, contains half the saturated fat content and ten times more Omega 3 levels than olive oil and only six per cent saturated fat – the lowest level of any other oil on the market.

I love cooking with Mackintosh of Glendaveny rapeseed oil. It’s a just a lovely, artisan product made with care and real attention to detail.

Compared to other oils, it has a high burning point so is really versatile. Add in all the health benefits in terms of Omega 3 and you have a great local alternative to olive, sunflower and vegetable oils.
