    Very much recommend this tour. The family that owns and operates the farm and mill are warm and welcoming. We loved hearing about how the oil is produced. The olive oil itself is incredible. Our luggage was full of bottles when we left. We will be ordering as well. What a great experience!!

    Sometimes, you stumble across a place and know that it will become a yearly visit. OLEIFICIO GULINO is definitely one of these places, we found it quite by accident and it was exactly what we needed. The quality of the Olive oil was so superior to anything we had previously tasted, we bought a fair amount and tomorrow will go back to buy some more. Remember, a good oil elevates a dish to the highest level. We are looking forward to a summer of OILIO GULINO on every dish.

    I am a tour guide and having heard very good things about the Gulino oil mill from other tour guides, I too decided to bring a group of visitors to discover the art of oil more closely. I really liked that contrast between the ancient building that tells of past history and the cutting-edge machinery that is present inside the oil mill... as if to testify to a tradition capable of evolving over time. Antonello welcomed us and explained to us in a simple and passionate way the secrets that allow us to produce an excellent oil. We saw the equipment used for the production of oil up close and I must admit that everything was very clean, the machinery was shiny. The highlight of the visit was the tasting: each oil was accompanied by a detailed explanation of its characteristics and I was very impressed by the goodness of their oils, in particular the ERBESSO oil, an oil that stands out among a thousand oils…. I admit that I had never tasted such good oil. The combination of professionalism, passion and beauty of the landscape made this experience unique and very welcome to my group. Mine is just a goodbye as I will be visiting again soon with other groups of visitors.
