ORLANDI FAMILY: OIL MILL TOUR AND EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL TASTING

 

Frantoio Famiglia Orlandi is a young extra virgin olive oil producer that has won important national and international awards. It is located in Illasi, a small rural village a few kilometres from Verona.

 

The modern oil mill was born in 2019 from the passion and commitment of Carlo Orlandi together with his wife Cristina, in a romantic 18th-century farmhouse surrounded by greenery, in an area, the Valpolicella Orientale, that has always been devoted to the production of excellent oil and wines.

 

In this beautiful setting, Famiglia Orlandi will guide you inside the oil mill, where you will discover the various phases of production and, with an engaging sensory tasting session, learn to recognise the distinctive characteristics of a quality oil.

The guided tasting will be held in the fascinating stone-walled vaulted cellar and will include the tasting of three extra virgin olive oils. At the end of the tasting, you will delight your palate by combining the extra virgin oils with delicious bruschetta.

 

At the end of the experience, you can visit the shop and buy the extra virgin olive oils and the selection of products from the Orlandi family.
