Discover how olive oil is produced in an eco-friendly manner and enjoy a tasting that will reveal the nuances of the various oils. The Son Miranda farm near the center of the island will be the setting for your immersion into the production of organic olive oil. The experience will include an enlightening tour of the olive groves, an explanation of how the olives are harvested and a look at the mill that produces the LA Organic brand oils. The olives are grown without chemicals or herbicides and manually harvested using traditional methods. Grazing sheep and horses take care of any unwanted vegetation and enrich the soil with natural fertilizer. The result is an array of delicious, subtly flavored organic olive oils, many of which you will sample. Some of them contain single varieties of olives, others are produced from a coupage or blend of varieties. You can expect a surprising range of tastes, from delicate to intense.
