Great experience with a professional in the field. She explained very well the whole process to make oil with some family history, important fact about olive trees and finally how to test oil ourselves. The whole experience was concluded with a nice testing of oil and snacks of the region which was enough to have a fulfilling lunch. Everyone was very friendly and welcoming.

Fabulous visit to the Olive mill. Really enjoyed the story of the site and the family who run it. Very passionate and detailed talk with great pictures and stories. Lunch was lovely and the people were very keen to ensure that we had a good day.

Great learning and testing experience!

This was such a fabulous experience! Marta was a wonderfully gracious and knowledgeable host. Highly recommend to everyone. Its a little bit out of the way but well worth the drive and Marta made some great recommendations for a drive and beach for afterwards

Great experience

Tasty knowledge

Marta was such a great host. She has such a passion for the olive oil industry, process and art. My family has a new appreciation for not only olive oil but for southern Italian farming. It was a wonderful afternoon. Thank you Marta and the Olio Medico family for sharing your story.
