The second week of February every year in Italy is National Olive Oil Week.The week is a series of tastings and samplings and other events focused on olive oil. The event is organised by the Enoteca Italiana and Associazione Nazionale Città dell’Olio with Siena the epicenter of all activities!
There are meetings, seminars and tastings across Italy in such places as Acqui Terme and Barolo in Piedmonte, Berchidda in Sardinia, and Gradisca Isonzo in Friuli. Every year 10 fine restaurants are also chosen to host the best extra virgin olive oil from 10 regions of Italy.
The week aims to create new awareness both for tourists and operators in the sector, as well as to widen the appreciation of the 'culture of oil'. Yum!
