Evo Oil Tasting School with Blindfolded Tasting and Lunch

This is a full immersion in the world of Extra Virgin Olive Oil. This experience is for those who really want to delve into all aspects related to the Evo. What we will do... We start with a guided tour directly in the olive grove where you will learn the Tuscan way of pruning trees, how to recognize the different varieties of trees and their characteristics that you will find in the oil: practical experience! - Then a detailed lesson on how olive oil is extracted at the mill, what is the Italian classification of all the different quality levels of olive oil and why olive oil is so important for our health . You will also learn what is the ideal oil temperature, what type of glass to use and what is the best way to do an olive oil tasting. - After the theory, a blind guided tasting of 3 different types of EVO will follow: what is the professional way to taste an olive oil and above all how to recognize a quality one even if you are doing a blind tasting. - Finally, a four-course home-cooked lunch with properly paired farm wines will follow.
