On this visit to an olive oil mill in Sortino, we'll learn about the production process and enjoy an olive oil tasting and a delicious lunch! Discover the flavours of Sicily!
Delve into the World of Olive Oil
Italy is one of the main producers of olive oil in the Mediterranean, especially in regions like Sicily. We will meet at the Terra Surti estate, located on the outskirts of Sortino.
At this estate, we will visit the olive oil mill, where we will see how olives are transformed into olive oil and learn about the stages required to produce a high-quality product.
Following the tour, we'll don virtual reality goggles to gain insight into the harvesting process, which includes shaking the olive trees!
The tour will last approximately 1 hour, concluding with a tasting of extra virgin olive oil, a key ingredient in Mediterranean cuisine.
Add a Delicious Lunch
If you choose this option, after the olive oil mill visit, we will enjoy a traditional Sicilian lunch. The menu includes bread, olives, cured cheese, salami, bruschetta with pâté, stuffed pizzolo, ricotta, and honey. Drinks include mineral water, white wine, or red wine.
