The secrets of olive oil.
Duration: 3 Hours
Have green olives more oil than the dark once? How do you pick olives? How do I know which olive oil is the best?
To get answers to these questions, you are at the olive oil mill of Nadja at the right place!
From Olive to Gold: A Look Inside the Mill
Do green olives contain more oil than dark ones? How do you recognize top-quality oil, and how does the harvest actually work? For the answers to these questions, we’ll take you to Nadja's olive oil mill.
During a fascinating tour of the mill, Nadja explains the entire process: from the first harvest to the pressing of the oil. You will discover the differences between the traditional pressing method and the modern centrifuge. After a demonstration of olive oil tasting — where you will learn to recognize the subtle nuances yourself — we conclude with a delicious buffet of local snacks and matching oils.
Note: All our activities and workshops are exclusively available to guests staying at La Girandola.
