Tasting Notes
Tokara Olives offer a variety of carefully selected EVOO’s. There are two blends: the Tokara Premium Oil that is rich with tingling pepper tones and pleasant bitterness, and the Multi Varietal with a fruity character and delicate spicy flavours. The two single variety oils are Frantoio, with its robust fruitiness and herbaceous aromas, as well as delicate Mission olive oil, that is gentle with finely balanced grassy flavours.
History & Culture
Throughout the classical wine-producing regions of the world, there is a natural association between the olive grove and the vineyard. At Tokara, this celebrated relationship continues. Visitors are invited to a unique olive oil tasting and learning experience and a glimpse into how our award winning Extra Virgin Olive Oils are produced.
