Great introduction to olive oil culture! - We walked through a local market and our guide pointed out some of the typical Córdoban foods, then went to their tasting room and tried a variety of olive oils. Our guide, Bárbara, was very sincere, and young, and part of a family that makes wine and olive oil.

Something unique to be remembered - Very enjoyable. We were a group of friends from the UK staying in Cordoba for a few days. We opted for the olive oil tasting rather than a wine one, and we all agreed it had been a wise choice. The experience started with a brief visit to the local market, and we then moved onto the actual tasting. Explanations were given in very good English and we found them fascinating. I never thought that I would see myself avidly dipping my bread into the different oils and trying to identify aromas and aftertaste. And they were different! And our thanks to Barbara, a young talented girl who made the experience delightful.

Exceptional Guide - Our guide Barbara was exceptional. We learned so much about olive oils, their production, different kinds, the industry and more. The tasting was a wonderful experience with each kind thoroughly explained in advance. We purchased some that are not available in Canada to bring home. A relaxing stroll to begin with as we visted a market. Highly recommended!

A Very Nice Surprise - Barbara, the tour guide is extraordinary. His explanation was excellent, practical and simple. The Oil Tasting was skittish and she was able to explain important details such as Taste , Viscosity, Color and other characteristics of the Oil. I highly recommend Barbara. All right...

Definitely a must do to try Spains many olive oils - Barbara met us promptly under the plaza clock (flush against the building) at 11am. From our starting point there at the market we took a quick tour then off to her private location to taste the olive oil. We both were provided coffee or tea, water, a loaf of bread and some olives. Not exactly breakfast but she graciously brought us back to the market once the tour was over so we could buy cheese and meat for our journey. Barbara was very knowledgeable about the olives and the entire process. We learned many new things. We were able to purchase the olive oil once we were done. She does not provide shipping home. The olive oils we tasted were like no others we've had in the U.S. She also does wine tastings. A charming young lady with much knowledge and enthusiasm for her family's products.
