Description
Enjoy the extraordinary experience of our extra virgin olive oil tasting; we go along with you in a sensory journey to discover the "liquid gold" Whether raw or cooked, extra virgin olive oil will always improve the flavour of a dish in which it is used but that combining is an art and we will give you the best sources of information possible. After a brief introduction on this pillar of Italian gastronomy’s history and cultural legacy, we walk our guests through our production philosophy centred on the use of a low-impact oxidative system that respects the cultivar’s integrity and traceability.

Looking at olive oil in a different way
My friend and I booked a extra virgin olive oil experience. Katia learned us a lot about olive oil and answered all of your answers from growing the olive tree, to pressing the olives to selling it. It was a fun learning experience which helped us looking at olive oil in a different way.
