Sussex Gold wins blind taste test on Sky TV
During a recent edition of Market Kitchen on the Good Food Channel our Extra Virgin Rapeseed Oil came out top against four other brands in a blind taste test.

During November 2009 we started producing our Oak Smoked Rapeseed Oil in 250ml bottles. The oil has a wonderful aroma and flavour. It is great for dressings and roasting winter vegetables. Another idea is to mash potatoes with it.


Sussex Gold appears on live tv!
We were delighted to have a visit from Meridian News on Wednesday 19th August. Weather presenter Simon Parkin presented the weather for the area and did a live interview with John from the fields of Sunflowers.

Local MP and shadow Defra spokesman Nick Herbert visited us on the 11th August last year and had a tour of the Farm and Pressing plant. You can see a press release by following the link below.

We still have our range of Dressings and Sauces based on our Extra Virgin Cold Pressed Rapeseed Oil.  Currently there are seven varieties, they are: Honey & Wholegrain Mustard Dressing, Chilli Dipping Sauce, Chilli & Garlic Dressing, Balsamic Dressing, Saucy French Dressing, Stir Fry Sauce and our new Tomato and Paprika Sauce.

They are all available in 250ml bottles.

Our Stir Fry Sauce won a 'Gold' two star Great Taste Award.  Winning gold is no easy task and we were in good company.  Of the 4873 products entered, only 308 obtained a two-star  award.

Towards the end of 2010 we launched a new range of mayonnaises. They are Classic, Garlic and Seafood.

All our ranges are widely available in Farm Shops so keep an eye out. You can also order them by contacting us directly.



Our Rapeseed Oil is NOW AVAILABLE IN HARRODS.

We are also on the menu of many restaurants such as SOUTH LODGE HOTEL, LAMBERTS OF BALHAM AND HOTEL DU VIN, BRIGHTON. PLEASE SEE OUR STOCKIST LIST FOR MORE INFO.


Since starting production we have had a high demand for our Rapeseed Oil and our stockists are rapidly increasing in number.
