Olive Grove & Oil Mill Tour + Tasting
At the indicated time, we'll meet at Oleotour Cazorla, where we'll begin a guided tour in which we'll delve into the world of olive oil, learning about its history, the characteristics of the different types, as well as how it's made.
We'll start with an introduction to the olive culture of Cazorla, a town in Jaén especially known for its high-quality olive oil.
Afterward, we'll head to the outdoor facilities to learn about the region's three varieties of olives: Picual, Royal & Acebuche. We'll get a closer look at these varieties as we stroll through the olive groves and admire the surrounding mountain scenery.
During the tour, we'll also check out the other areas of the complex, including the bodega, the factory, and a museum displaying a recreation of an oil mill. Then, we'll experience Cazorla's prized product for ourselves in a tasting of 2-3 different types of Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
The bottling area will be the next place we see, followed by a shop with products made with the complex's own Royal variety of Extra Virgin Olive Oil. Finally, after two hours of learning the ins and out of olive oil production, the tour will conclude.
