We had hoped to find an olive oil tour during our trip to the Peloponnese, and happened upon Oilympian Koufolias on our way to Ancient Olympia. We stopped in and were treated to a delightful explanation of how this family has modernized the ancient art of making olive oil. And we got to taste their delicious varieties of this golden treat. The flavored oils were just as amazing as its purest form. It was time well spent to round out our knowledge and meet some lovely and interesting people who are obviously passionate about their craft.
