Olive Oil Experiences in Granada for Agencies and DMCs
Include an extra virgin olive oil experience in your Granada itineraries. Tastings, guided tastings, and tailor-made experiences for tour groups.
At Molino y Cata, we work with travel agencies, tour operators, and DMCs seeking authentic and unique gastronomic experiences for their clients in Granada. We offer extra virgin olive oil experiences at our olive oil shop in the historic center, just two minutes from the Cathedral—an easy stop to incorporate into any city tour.
Spain is the world's leading producer of olive oil, and Andalusia accounts for the majority of that production. However, very few tourists have the opportunity to truly experience this product. Our proposal fills that gap: a sensory, educational, and memorable experience that connects visitors with the culture of extra virgin olive oil in a personal and professional way.
Why collaborate with Molino and Cata
A real professional experience. The tastings are led by Mercedes Uceda, an expert in sensory analysis of olive oils and a professor at the University of Jaén. This is not an impromptu activity: it is an experience designed by one of the most renowned professionals in the olive oil sector in Spain.
Unbeatable location. Calle Paz 12, right in the heart of Granada's historic center. Just 2 minutes from the Cathedral, 5 from Plaza Nueva, and 10 from the Albaicín. Your customers won't need to go out of their way.
Total flexibility. We adapt the experiences to the group size, language, available time, and traveler profile. From a quick 20-minute tasting to a full 2-hour tasting with food pairing.
Spanish and English. All experiences are offered in both languages. If you need another language, please contact us.
Excellent ratings. 4.87 out of 5 in verified reviews (TripAdvisor, Google Maps, GetYourGuide). Our visitors especially appreciate the personalized service, professionalism, and the amazing experience.
Experiences available for groups
Guided tasting
The quickest option to integrate into itineraries with limited time. Visitors sample a selection of extra virgin olive oils from different varieties and origins, accompanied by an explanation of the differences between them. Includes artisan bread and bowls for dipping, water, and soft drinks.
It is a light but impactful experience: most participants are surprised to discover the enormous variety of aromas and flavors that an olive oil can have.
Duration: 20-40 min | Group size: Up to 15 people | Languages: Spanish / English
Professional guided tasting
A more in-depth experience where participants learn the true methodology of olive oil tasting: olfactory and gustatory phases, identification of positive attributes, detection of defects, and comparison of varieties. Led by Mercedes Uceda with the same rigor as a panel of tasters, but adapted for everyone to enjoy.
Duration: 60-90 min | Group size: 2-10 people | Languages: ES / EN

Pairing with EVOO and gourmet products
Everything included in the tasting, plus a selection of gourmet products to discover how olive oil transforms every bite. Combinations of olive oils with cheeses, chocolate, preserves, artisan bread, and other local products. Ideal for groups seeking a complete gastronomic experience.
Duration: 90-120 min | Group size: 2-10 people | Languages: ES / EN
Tailor-made experiences
If none of the above formats suit your group's needs, we'll design one together. We'll adapt the selection of oils, the duration, the accompanying products, and the approach to your requirements. We work with groups of any size and can coordinate with other activities or visits in Granada.

Ideal traveler profile
Our experiences work especially well with these traveler profiles:
Gastronomic and foodie tourism: travelers seeking authentic culinary experiences beyond restaurants. Olive oil tasting is a unique activity not found on typical tourist routes.
Cultural and heritage tourism: visitors interested in the history and traditions of Andalusia. Olive oil is a fundamental part of Mediterranean culture, and the experience connects with that interest.
Premium and luxury tourism: for discerning travelers who value exclusivity and quality. Our tastings are led by a leading expert in the sector, in an intimate setting, and feature top-of-the-range olive oils.
Small groups and FIT: our olive oil shop is perfect for small groups looking for personalized, non-mass experiences.
Cruises and tours of Andalusia: the central location allows you to include the stop without deviating from your itinerary. The quick tasting (20-40 min) fits well into itineraries with limited time.
