Bailén Oil Mill Tour + Tasting

The tour begins at your chosen time in the oil tourism center located on the Madrid-Cádiz motorway, near Bailén, a town closely linked to the olive oil sector.

During the visit, you will learn how oil is obtained in the mill, known as the 'Almazara', of Arab origin. This is the press used to extract juice from olives, resulting in "liquid gold", a key element of traditional Mediterranean gastronomy.

You will discover how Jaen has become one of the main olive oil production areas globally, understanding the production process and techniques that yield a unique product of high quality.

After the tour of the oil mill, you will partake in a tasting of 2 olive oils from Arbequina and Picual varieties, learning to distinguish and appreciate these extra virgin oils.

The tour lasts 1.5 hours, concluding with the experience of rich olive oils on your palate.
