Learn the secrets of the traditional Jaen product with this Bailén Oil Mill Tour. You will complete the experience with an olive oil tasting.

Bailén Oil Mill Tour + Tasting

The tour starts at your chosen time at the oil tourism center on the Madrid-Cádiz motorway, located on the outskirts of Bailén, a town in Jaén closely associated with the olive oil sector.

During the visit, you will learn how oil is obtained in the oil mill. The 'Almazara' is of Arab origin, referring to the press or mill used to extract olive juice. The result is the "liquid gold", a key element of traditional Mediterranean gastronomy.

You will discover how Jaen has become one of the main areas for olive oil production globally, understanding the production process and techniques used to create a high-quality product.

Following the oil mill visit, a tasting of 2 olive oils of Arbequina and Picual varieties will be conducted, where you will learn to distinguish and appreciate these extra virgin olive oils.

The tour concludes after 1.5 hours, leaving you with a rich taste of excellent olive oils.
