Experience Details

In the historical site of the Academy, an XVIII-century apartment, we propose our guests the best local products. We usually introduce the world of Evo, cultivars, health benefits and then we move on to make an extra virgin olive oil tasting of 4 or 6 Evos.

Extra virgin olive oil tasting is followed by wine tasting and a light lunch or dinner to appreciate traditional Tuscan cooking.

All the activities are held personally by me, Evo expert and food & wine consultant, in English, French, and Spanish.

Sara and her associates...
September 23, 2025

Sara and her associates were excellent informants as to olive oil quality and uses. They did the presentation for me alone, which was gracious. They prefer small groups. It was wonderful.
