This is not just a tasting — it's a full olive oil seminar led by a certified sommelier who fell in love with olive oil after moving to Crete and marrying into an olive oil producing family.
You'll learn everything: production methods, olive oil categories, how to taste professionally, and how to recognize premium quality from poor quality.
You'll taste oils from multiple small Cretan producers, exploring different traditional Cretan varieties — including some of the oldest olive varieties in the entire Mediterranean.
You'll also get hands-on, making your own traditional Cretan dakos using fresh local ingredients and premium olive oil.
