Begin your visit with an introduction to the company’s history and philosophy, offering insight into how generations of producers have preserved and improved their craft. Then, explore the production area, where your guide will illustrate the main machinery used to transform freshly harvested olives into high‑quality extra virgin olive oil.From the initial cleaning and leaf removal to the crushing, malaxation, and final separation phases, each step is explained in a clear and engaging way. This behind‑the‑scenes look reveals how precision, timing, and expertise contribute to the final product, and how each decision influences aroma, flavor, and nutritional value.Continue with a guided tasting designed to help you understand the differences between oils of varying quality. Sample three oils: an organic extra virgin olive oil, a conventional extra virgin olive oil, and a defective oil commonly found in large‑scale distribution. Through professional tasting techniques, learn how to recognize aromas, flavors, and defects, and how to distinguish a high‑quality product from a lower‑grade one.To conclude the experience, enjoy a classic Tuscan bruschetta prepared with freshly toasted bread and the mill’s extra virgin olive oil. Water and soft drinks are also provided, offering a simple yet authentic moment that reflects the essence of local cuisine.In the warmer months and on clear days, the tasting takes place outdoors on the panoramic terrace, surrounded by the valley and the olive groves. When the weather doesn’t allow it, the experience moves indoors, but the aromas and the atmosphere of the oils still evoke the very landscape you’ll see just outside.
