Fun Experience - It was a fun experience. Our visiting friends found this on TripAdvisor and thought it would be fun and it was. We live here and didn't know about it. You know, busy with life. Now that we know, we will bring future guests to visit.

Fun visit to Olive company - Everyone was very knowledgeable about the products, olive oil/balsamic vinegar. The tasting was an incredible experience. I loved the olive oil, but the balsamic vinegars stole the show! We enjoyed the cafe with the farm to table food . Finally shopping in the store was fun and informative. Got recipe cards for the oils and vinegars purchased. Highly reccommend

The blood orange olive... - The blood orange olive oil with the ice cream is amazing. It sounds horrible but it's incredible. Try it. It was a learning experience.

A great tasting experience--and no hangover! - Real olive oil--not the stuff mixed with vegetable oils in plastic bottles--is a real treat when you conduct a tasting that treats oil like fine wines. See, swirl, sniff, sip, and savor brought the flavors to life. Our guide Trey expertly explained the differences between the oils we tasted to our group on a weekday morning. Exotic flavors like harissa, basil, Sicilian, and blood orange were great on their own, but combined with the amazing array of balsamic vinegars and then sampling them with bread, parmesan cheese, marcona almonds, dark chocolate, and even ice cream made for a superbly tasty and educational experience. They shared recipes, ideas for using the oils and vinegars, and a conversion chart for substituting oil for butter in recipes. The shop has two sizes of bottles for purchase, as well as accessories for serving. There's a restaurant that serves fresh, seasonal, farm-to-table food that showcases their products at their best. Reservations are necessary for groups. Weekends are busy, but don't miss this gem when visiting Dripping Springs. Their award winning oils and vinegars are worth the trip!

One word-- yum! - Not a fan of olives but olive oil-- yum! Tour guide was very knowledgeable and was apparent that he enjoys what he does! Bought 5 bottles as souvenirs and a few Christmas gifts to boot. Do yourself a favor and try their strawberry balsamic lemonade! Worth the stop!

Love the balsamic vinegar!! - I enjoyed the tour and found it interesting as I knew nothing about the process of making oils or balsamic vinegar. The infusion of flavors and the tasting were very eye opening and delicious. The shop has a nice variety of unique items and it smells wonderful. The olive trees had been destroyed by the freeze and the ones replanted aren't anything to look at yet, but not their fault. My male partner wasn't as into it as I was so I noticed several males asking questions. Give it a shot. Our tour guide was enthusiastic and knew her stuff.

A little bit of Italy in Texas? - We added this stop in between wine tasting visits, it was worth the stop and a nice way to break up the day. We were not able to tour the grounds or get on an official tasting however, you can still visit the store and eat in the bistro. You are able to order a sampling/tasting of the olive oils and vinegars. The bistro is counter service with limited seating both indoor and outdoor.

First Olive Oil Tasting! - Definitely recommend if you’re in the Austin area! Get the Antipasto Salad paired with a BOTTLE of Texiante — a great red blend that pairs well with not only the salad & olives but all the amazing olive oils! Something not on the menu… request an olive oil tasting — they’ll provide a flight of olive oils + pro-tips on how to be an instant olive oil connoisseur! My fave is Millers Blend!
