Le strade del gusto

Guided tour of an oil mill

We will visit one of the most important oil mills in the Parteolla (from the Latin Pars Olea), an area near Cagliari particularly suited for the production of quality extra virgin olive oil. The oil mill has been in operation since 1962 and was built at the initiative of 31 citizens and olive growers from Dolianova (the main town of Parteolla) with the aim of improving the quality, productivity, and marketability of a product already excellent by nature. The growers of this region have a long tradition, in fact, as early as the time of the Phoenicians, several centuries before Christ, olives were harvested and processed in Parteolla. The experience begins with a visit to the production area dedicated to table olives (the olives we enjoy during our aperitifs or bring to our tables) and then continues with a visit to the oil mill (the area dedicated to EVO oil production). The tour will continue in the tasting room where we will watch a video story of all the stages of oil production, from harvesting to milling and bottling, and will conclude with a guided tasting of some products (2 types of EVO oil, olive cream, and olives in brine). You will discover that different olives produce oils with very different visual and taste characteristics and that there is a correct pairing for every food. You can see the machinery in operation from October to February (EVO oil production period).
