Johnny Madge is the only British International Olive Oil Competition Judge. His approach is based on expertise but, most of all, his approach is to make the atmosphere as relaxed and friendly as possible. People come away from our tours feeling they were guests not clients and that is just what Johnny wants. You see the trees where the oil has been coming from for over a thousand years; you see a mill from 1606 where you see the fascinating process of making oil in the old days and then you visit one of Spain's greatest oil producers so as to see how he makes oil and then learn how to taste the different oils and then, finally, be amazed to taste how each oil, just like wine, pairs beautifully with delicious different ingredients. All of this is washed down with excellent local wine.
year old olive trees in the world; visit an olive mill built in 1606; visit a modern olive mill (owned by one of Spain's greatest olive oil producers) so as to understand the process of modern oil production; learn how international olive oil tasters like Johnny Madge taste olive oil and have lunch in an olive grove where we will see how the different olive oils transform the dishes. As we drive around Johnny tells you about the history of olive oil in the Castellón area which goes back to the time of the Romans who were importing oil from Spain 2,000 years ago. All this is done in a fun and relaxed way where Johnny encourages everyone to ask as many questions as they like about the mysterious world of olive oil. You are driven around in Johnny's comfortable, air-conditioned 9-seater minibus.
