Olive oil tasting and light lunch in Caprarica di Lecce
Salento olive oil tasted slowly, with something light on the side.
What you do
In Salento, olive oil is on the table every day, but tasting it carefully is something else. At this tasting in Caprarica di Lecce you try it slowly, learn to notice the differences, and pair it with a light lunch.
It is a simple moment: no ceremony, just time to taste and chat. It lasts from 45 minutes to an hour and a half.
It takes place at 6:30 pm, on request. You can come on your own.
By bike
With that timing, the tasting is a lovely way to end a day of cycling. Ride during the day, reach Caprarica in the late afternoon and sit down just when all you want is to stop.
You collect the bike for free in Lecce, San Foca or Calimera, and I prepare a self-guided route with GPX and roadbook. During the tasting the bike stays locked with the lock provided, and for the ride back the lights are already in your kit. If you prefer, you can do it on a day without the bike.
