Learn to taste olive oil like an expert - from an expert!
Pablo Voitzuk returns to Gold Ridge Organic Farms for another in-depth, olive oil sensory experience. In this half-day long event, we will explore how to evaluate a wide range of olive oils, from both local and international producers. Learn how to detect specific aroma and flavor profiles, as markers of high quality and flaws which are deemed either undesirable or show that an olive oil is past its prime.
Pablo Voitzuk is an international olive oil educator, consultant, and judge. He teaches at the Olive Oil Program of the Olive Oil Times in NYC and London, and consults with olive orchards and mills in California, New Zealand, Portugal, Uruguay, and Turkey.
