The three/toru flagship products that began Toru Road are: Toru Road Vegan Kale & Kawakawa Pesto, Toru Road Horopito Dukkah, and Toru Road Chocoholic Granola. Most of the kai we make is vegan (our youngest boy has had something to do with that), but whether you're vegan, vegetarian, pescatarian, or flexitarian, all of our kai is healthy, wholesome, good for you, and tastes good too!

Toru Road Horopito Dukkah & Toru Road Tahi Bay Oil Rua Deal (2 bottles of Oil, plus 2 packets of Dukkah)
NZ$29.95
It takes two/rua deal
Grab yourself a combo deal of Horopito Dukkah Rua size (80 grams) and Tahi Bay Oil (250mls). Our whānau's most favourite way to use Horopito Dukkah is on a platter that has three things (fresh bread that you can slice or pull apart, a delicious extra virgin olive oil like our Tahi Bay Oil, and our Horopito Dukkah). Dab a piece of fresh bread into some Tahi Bay Oil, and then into the Horopito Dukkah - it is the perfect pick me up and you don't even realise it's good for your puku. Twice as much fun - just like our twin mokopuna.
Iridescent Karera/Green
Organic bay leaves, extra virgin olive oil
Organic bay leaves have been infused into extra virgin olive oil to create our warm, mild-tempered bay olive oil, that we have named Tahi Bay Oil. Its name is a twist on Titahi Bay, Porirua, where August spent his youth, and also takes into account our brand name Toru - Tahi seems to fit (we just need a Rua Oil now!)
