Do you really know how to recognize an extra virgin olive oil from a simple virgin oil? Then you can't miss this immersive experience between olive groves and olive press, discovering everything that makes an oil truly EVO. We will start with a walk among the olive trees, trees that exist only because of man and that tell centuries of Mediterranean history. You will discover how olive growing has evolved and how quality extra virgin olive oil is produced today, thanks to careful processing that respects the raw material. We will visit the oil mill and talk about production techniques, but also about the defects and characteristics that distinguish a true extra virgin oil. You will learn how to taste it like a sommelier: what to evaluate, how to recognize scents, flavors and imperfections. The tastiest part comes with the snack-tasting, where you will taste 3 extra virgin and 1 non-EVO oil, accompanied by 3 seasonal and local pairings, to go beyond the classic bruschetta and discover the gastronomic potential of quality oil. Plus, you'll receive a handcrafted souvenir and take advantage of a special 7 percent discount on products purchased at the oil mill. What's included 🫒 Tasting of 3 extra virgin oils + 1 non-EVO oil 🍴 Snack with 3 seasonal and local food pairings 🏭 Walk among the olive trees and guided tour of the oil mill 💬 Interactive lesson on tasting, quality and defects of EVO oil 🎁 Homemade souvenir for each group 🛍️ 7% discount on on-site purchases
