Etna tour with olive oil tasting

What could be nicer than discovering one of the wonders of nature in the world and tasting one of its typical products at the same time? On the way to Mount Etna you can taste the delicious Olive Oil that has a unique flavour given by the soil on which the olive trees are cultivated.

During the tour, you can discover the Extra Virgin Olive Oil of Mount Etna DOP obtained from the fruits of the Nocellara Etnea variety that is among the main vineyards from which this delicious product is made.

During the tour, you will be able to taste the Etna DOP Extra Virgin Olive Oil, which has a golden-yellow colour with greenish highlights, a very fruity, light aroma and a flavour that gives a slight sensation ranging from bitter to spicy.

The oil produced on Etna has multi-millennial origins and was introduced as a product during the first millennium BC by the Phoenicians and later by the Greeks.

Oil production has developed continuously over the centuries and many have been the contributions of the peoples who have succeeded one another over time, keeping the olive-growing tradition alive.
