Exceptional oil - Terra Surti extra virgin olive oil is a real discovery! The intense and fruity flavor won me over from the first taste. I also really enjoyed the opportunity to visit the oil mill and discover the traditional production processes. An authentic experience and a product of the highest quality.

I'll never look at olive oil the same way again! - I'll never look at olive oil the same way again. Seriously. This was a fantastic experience. Our host, Federica, is lovely and curated a wonderful visit for us. We toured the groves and the production facility, then had our tasting and lunch in their insanely cool tasting room that I wanted to live in (you have to see it for yourself). Their was even a VR presentation, which was such a great added touch. Federica is so knowledgeable about the entire process of making olive oil, from the growing and harvesting, to the production and selling. We learned so much about olives and how they are used. Very happy we spent our time here.

Great, intimate experience - Awesome experience. The olive oil farm is organic and runs sustainable farming practices. Our tour guide and the owner treated us like family, sharing their food and personal experiences as well. They also shared how they farm via VR, so it was really cool to experience it like that. Great experience!

Pearl in Sicily - A pearl in Sicily, we were personally welcomed and were allowed to experience an interesting guided tour through the olive groves. During the very good tasting in the great cellar we were able to spoil our palate with the substantial organic olive oil. Thank you very much for the hospitality.
