About Tavira Olive Oil Tastings
An olive oil tasting in Tavira takes you to the source — the groves and presses — with a guided tasting that recalibrates what you buy forever.
Most tastings include several single-variety oils plus bread, cheese or enchidos — closer to a wine tasting than a shop demo.

What Travelers Say
"Take this tour! This is a family run (3 ladies) operation. It was pretty amazing to see how olives (not olive oil) are processed. Very informative and fun. The tasting table they set up was epic, with bread, 5 different kinds of olives, meat and so much else. They offered homemade lemonade which was amazing since it was 35C outside. Also different wines which we definitely tried. A a lovely store offering so much, which we were happy to purchase items to help this local family out."
"I am not a fan of Olives, but my wife is, so we went. We both enjoyed it and felt it was worth the trip. The guide was very knowledgeable and experienced. It was educational and informative. Not just about olives, but she also talked about the economics and growers and of the Portuguese culture. The tasting session had a few other cultural food items besides olives. I did try the olives too, but it won't convert me."
"great tastings, very generous amounts. wonderful people"
"We learned a lot about how olives are harvested. What really impressed us was how this company diverted its primary activity to include tours. Well done to the staff and the management who took this initiative. The tour was informative, enjoyable and delivered with pride by our host. That pride was well in order and lovely to see."
