What To Expect

This is the only true olive oil tasting program on the island led by Anita Zachou a world-famous Olive Oil Expert and judge in international olive oil competitions. Anita envisioned olive oil tasting workshops on Mykonos when everybody thought she was crazy back in 2019. She paved the way and now others follow and copy but without expertise and quality of services. You will enjoy an olive oil tasting workshop with a view of Sacred Delos Island. After the tasting, you can stay and swim on the gorgeous beach of Agios Ioannis (take a swimsuit with you!) and have lunch in the restaurant.
During this workshop, you will learn:
The basic principles of olive oil tasting and sensory evaluation.
How to taste award-winning EVOOs from all of Greece and olive oils with defects.
All the benefits of Greek olive oil for your health, beauty & well-being.
Learning how to taste olive oil will help you learn how to evaluate it and protect yourself from fraud.
