Overview

The tour, conducted by the same producer, allows the visitor to discover the secrets and passion behind the production of an extraordinary quality Organic EVO oil. Nonno Giulio oil was, in fact, able to conquer even the most experienced palates in Italy and in the world: recently winner of the First Award at the BAIOOC 2025 international competition in Buenos Aires and already reported by Gambero Rosso in the 2022, 2024 and 2025 editions of the Italian Oil Guide.
The visitor will have the opportunity to touch the efforts of the olive grower, to immerse himself in his typical day during the pruning or harvesting operations and then to taste on the table the sublime result, the result of the effort of generations and distillate of the millenary Sicilian tradition in olive cultivation.
At the end of the experience, you will have the opportunity to buy the oil to take home a bit of Sicily to embellish the dishes of your kitchen.

What to expect

The activity begins, unless otherwise agreed, at 11 am from the structure of the farm. From the entrance of the structure begins the guided tour of the olive grove which consists of an educational walk directly with the producer. Along the way, various topics related to olive growing are discussed: history of the olive grove, life and production of the olive tree, cultivation operations, tree morphology and pruning and harvesting techniques.
The seven-hectare walk through the olive grove leads to the lake which allows irrigation of the crop and offers the opportunity to take photos in a context completely surrounded by nature. During the tour, the producer brings with him some tools of the trade to perform some demonstrations in which the visitor can also try his hand at first hand.
The visit allows you to understand the labors of the farmer in the production of extra virgin olive oil of the highest quality.
The walk ends between 12.15 and 12.30 with a short visit to the permaculture greenhouses from which the company grows vegetables served at the restaurant.
