Yes, you read that correctly – member Adriana Tilve is hosting an extra virgin olive oil tasting! She did this fun event with her women’s club in Italy and suggested that we do it for our group too.

ABOUT THIS EVENT

Our tasting guide will be Rachele Rutili, who has a degree in business and economics and is one of the few professionals enrolled in the National Register of Italian Sommelier of Extra Virgin Olive Oil (n. 163). Rachele comes from Umbria, an Italian region historically famous for the production of an excellent extra virgin olive oil (EVOO). She has been working in the EVOO sector for many years, learning the art of olive tree cultivation and the production of olive oil at first from her father and grandfather and then through specialized courses lead by the main Italian experts of the olive oil industry.

Rachele will be introducing our members to the EVOO culture in the Mediterranean basin and teaching us how to taste and identify the quality for different purposes in the kitchen (and help us decide what to buy at the supermarket in Germany!)

Adriana and Rachele will be supplying everything for the tasting along with drinks and snacks for palate cleansing. This event is for members only and the suggested donation is  €10 per person.

This event is a charity fundraiser and 100% of your prepayment of  €10 will be added to our Frauenhaus collection for 2022. Please write “Spende EVOO” in the notes section of your bank transfer if you plan to deduct the donation on your German taxes. 

ONLY 20 SPOTS AVAILABLE – RSVP NOW!

To reserve your spot, please respond in the private Facebook event (or use the form below if you aren’t on Facebook). To confirm your reservation, please transfer the €10 per person to the IWCS bank account no later than Friday, May 20th (see the comment above about what to write in the notes section). If you have any extenuating circumstances that keep you from getting the funds to us by that date, please speak directly with the host so we don’t assume you are no longer interested.
