Olive Oil Tourism
It similar to Wine or Cheese – where the magic of tasting onsite at a winery or a cheesemaker’s farm reveals information about the product and you might be developing the differences in taste the first time.
With HP EVOO (High Phenolic Extra Virgin Olive Oil) it is even more special. It’s not just food, but has medical attributes in a wide range. To combine a holiday trip with visiting a farm or olive oil mill facility where you can taste and learn about healthy EVOOs – is learning about your health!
Here are farms & producers of high quality EVOO, we personally know and recommend to visit. We know their philosophy and products. They produce fine and healthy EVOOs, you can not buy in a supermarket. One event that is even more exciting is the harvest time. If you can schedule to take part for one or two days during harvest, it will be an unforgettable holiday.
