Dear friends and fellow producers,
After so many years of work, we believe even more that in order to achieve important goals and keep up with changes in the world of extra virgin olive oil, we need great cooperation.

The Terred’Olio Guide, with its Italian and English edition, continues to be of great value and distributed in Italy and abroad in all the educational and promotional activities of the Academy.

So here it is that this year we are going to select the best oils of the new olive campaign in a whole different way, within the Maestrod’olio Competition!

L’Accademia Maestrod’olio è felice di annunciarvi la prima edizione di Lucca Olive Oil You, in programma il 1 e 2 febbraio 2025.

La location sarà Real Collegio, con ingresso libero.

Un festival internazionale a Lucca, in Toscana, tutto dedicato all’olio extravergine di oliva artigianale di eccellenza, organizzato dal Comune di Lucca, con la direzione dell’Accademia Maestrod’olio di Fausto Borella, in collaborazione con Shaner e Marriott Bonvoy e la prestigiosa Penn State University.

Unitevi a noi per un fine settimana di celebrazioni e scoperte, tra cui conferenze informative sull’ extravergine, tour esclusivi, mostre e degustazioni di olio d’oliva, cene culinarie gourmet, musica dal vivo e stimolanti eventi di networking.

The extra virgin olive oil kermesse, which crosses the 10-year milestone, is back again this year under the Portico Pretorio in Piazza San Michele in Lucca. We look forward to seeing you there with our selection of excellent oils from all over Italy.


Oil menu in Cortina!

 


A fantastic experience! The Hotel de la Poste in Cortina d’Ampezzo, a historic structure in Piazza Roma and the true heart of the Dolomites, hosted us for the winter season in which Maestrod’olio was able to create the Carta dell’Olio dedicated ad hoc to the clients of the hotel restaurant. During the initiative hundreds of customers accepted the proposal to taste free samples of extra virgin olive oil in combination with the dishes offered by the restaurant.

We added value to a location that needed no presentation, managing to promote dozens of products from the best Italian artisanal extra virgin olive oil companies.
