Liquid Gold: A Blind Olive Oil Tasting Experience in Tuscany

Venture beyond Florence into the heart of the Tuscan countryside, where rolling hills and centuries-old olive groves hold the secrets of Italy’s most prized culinary treasure—extra virgin olive oil. This privately guided tasting experience invites you to explore Tuscany’s rich agricultural heritage through a multi-sensory journey celebrating the artistry of authentic olive oil production.

Travel with your private driver to a family-owned estate surrounded by silvery olive trees. As you walk the groves with your expert host, you’ll learn how terroir, harvest timing, and cold-pressing techniques shape the character of premium oils—each one a story of season, soil, and tradition.

The highlight of your visit is a blind tasting led by a professional olive oil expert. In this refined yet engaging format, you’ll train your palate to detect the hallmarks of exceptional EVOO—from fruity and floral to herbaceous and peppery—while learning how to distinguish authentic oils from commercial blends.

Conclude your experience with a seasonal, farm-to-table lunch or light tasting featuring dishes thoughtfully paired with the estate’s oils and complementary wines. This immersive experience nourishes the senses and offers a deeper connection to Tuscany’s timeless culinary soul.
