About this activity

The oil-tasting experience in Sant'Ambrogio is an interesting itinerary for lovers of the intense scent and strong flavor of extra virgin olive oil. Ideal for those who want to immerse themselves in the Sicilian olive heritage. The visit to the historic oil mill, now a museum complex, is an opportunity to learn about the sensory characteristics of the oil and the local farming tradition. The route is an experience that involves all the senses and opens the door to Mediterranean flavors. After the passage to the mill, a pleasant walk follows through the narrow streets of the small village, until you reach the centuries-old olive trees overlooking the Tyrrhenian Sea. You will admire bright, crystal clear and lush colors. The final phase of the experience reserves guests a pleasant moment of conviviality, characterized by a Cabin aperitif based on products from the Madonie territory and a glass of wine from Sicilian wineries.
