    Greg was a warm and welcoming host, who does his job with great passion. Greg helped us understand the difference between good quality extra virgin olive oil and the more commonly sold but lower quality oils. The evening was interesting and fun; I will definitely try to go back soon.

    I recently became very interested in learning more about good olive oil. I searched online for local tastings and was so happy to find this class. I took my boyfriend and we had a great time! It was very informative, and I finally had an opportunity to taste the true, good extra virgin olive oils I had read about. They tasted so much better than the oil I had been using at home! I'd very much recommend this class, plus you get to walk away with a free bottle!
