The history and origin of olive oils at the Olive Oil Experience.

  • Greek terroir lends character and healthy polyphenols. Through early harvest and gentle cold extraction below 27°C, aromas and vitamins are perfectly preserved. Mechanically produced as "Extra Virgin Olive Oil," it guarantees unadulterated natural enjoyment for your palate and your health.
  • Greek olive oil producers like 8:26 Histories are rooted in centuries-old family traditions. A deep connection to their land and the passing down of knowledge through generations shape every bottle. Here, ancient heritage and family passion merge into a craft that authentically preserves the natural richness of the homeland.
  • History gives taste emotional depth. Knowledge of the producers from field to press makes freshness and dedication tangible. Thus, the oil becomes a liquid heritage: you taste not only the fruit, but the passion and time of entire generations of Greek family tradition.
  • True quality is measurable: an acidity level below 0.8% and cold extraction below 27°C are mandatory. Sensorily, it convinces with fruitiness, bitter notes, and pungency – clear indicators of valuable polyphenols. Mechanically obtained, this liquid gold preserves vitamins and the unadulterated character of its Greek homeland.

How the olive oil tasting in Munich proceeds

  • The two-hour "Olive Oil Experience" at Munich's Wagnerdrei is a sensual journey into the heart of Greece. Without prior knowledge, you will taste award-winning oils from 8:26 Histories, neutralized by fresh apple slices. During the subsequent food pairing, you will experience how liquid gold refines the taste of finger food. This educational expedition playfully teaches you the criteria for true quality and celebrates the Mediterranean lifestyle in an exclusive, stylish ambience.
  • Your experience begins with an interactive introduction to the world of Greek olive oil. In the guided tasting, you will try award-winning varieties pure, with apple slices neutralizing the palate in between. The crowning glory is the food pairing: here you will learn how high-quality oil perfectly complements the taste of bread and fine finger food. In this playful way, you learn to recognize quality with all your senses and to use it culinarily.
  • The guided tasting focuses on sensitizing your senses. You will learn to analyze complex aromas – from grassy-fresh to softly floral – like a professional. To precisely perceive the subtle differences between the various premium varieties, slices of green apple are served in between. This natural acidity effectively neutralizes your palate and optimally prepares it for the next sip, so that each olive oil can unfold its full, unadulterated taste intensity.
  • The "Olive Oil Experience" places great importance on an exclusive and private atmosphere. With a deliberately small group size of a minimum of 6 to a maximum of 10 people, the setting always remains personal and familiar. This intimacy allows for direct exchange with the experts and creates space for individual questions. Whether with friends, family, or colleagues – the atmosphere at Wagnerdrei guarantees a shared experience of enjoyment, where every guest receives maximum attention.Producers

Food Pairing: What dishes accompany the olive oil experience?

  • During food pairing, the olive oil refines a selection of fresh dishes: crispy bread, juicy tomatoes with mozzarella, and crunchy salads meet surprising partners like sweet fruits or fine dark chocolate. These combinations impressively show how the liquid gold harmoniously highlights and perfectly complements a wide variety of flavors.
  • Food pairing uses olive oil as a natural flavor carrier that binds and intensifies aromas. The bitter notes and pungency of the oil perfectly balance the sweetness of fruits or the creaminess of mozzarella. This creates synergies that impressively highlight hidden nuances in both the dishes and the oil.
  • The inclusive concept ensures that every guest gets their money's worth. All accompanying dishes are always offered as vegetarian and vegan options. Thus, the liquid gold harmonizes perfectly with the served breads, salads, and finger food specialties for every participant.
  • The dishes reflect the sun-drenched lightness of the Mediterranean region. Fresh tomatoes, aromatic basil, and golden-yellow pastries form the foundation. In combination with the olive oils, an authentic culinary journey is created that brings the healthy diversity and unadulterated enjoyment of the Greek lifestyle directly to Munich.
