A Journey Through the Olive Oil Universe

Nestled in the heart of Tuscany, the SuprEvo Museum offers an enchanting escape into the world of olive oil. As someone who has spent years curating luxury experiences, I was intrigued by the promise of an immersive, sensorial journey. Upon arrival, the museum’s modern architecture stood in stark contrast to the rustic charm of Monte San Savino, setting the stage for a unique blend of tradition and innovation.

The tour began with a captivating short film projected in a 360° immersive room, transporting us into the rich history and culture of olive oil. The visuals were stunning, and the narrative was both educational and engaging. Our guide, a passionate expert, seamlessly switched between languages, even accommodating German-speaking guests with ease. Her enthusiasm was infectious, and it was clear that she, like everyone at SuprEvo, had a deep love for their craft.

The Art and Science of Olive Oil

As we moved through the museum, we encountered ancient tools and modern technologies that illustrated the evolution of olive oil production. The highlight for me was the ancient stone mill from the 1800s, a testament to the enduring legacy of this craft. Each exhibit was thoughtfully curated, offering insights into the art and science behind olive oil.

Interactive installations allowed us to engage with the material in a hands-on way, from identifying different aromas to witnessing the life cycle of an olive tree. The museum’s mascot, Oli, added a touch of whimsy to the experience, delighting visitors of all ages. By the end of the tour, I felt like an olive oil connoisseur, armed with newfound knowledge and appreciation.

A Taste of Tuscany

No visit to the SuprEvo Museum would be complete without a tasting session. The final stage of our journey was a sensory delight, as we sampled a variety of exquisite extra virgin olive oils. Each tasting was accompanied by detailed explanations of the oils’ unique characteristics, enhancing our understanding and enjoyment.

The museum’s shop offered a treasure trove of local products, from gourmet delicacies to cosmetic specialties, all crafted with their signature olive oil. As I wandered through the garden area, surrounded by the serene beauty of Tuscan olive trees, I felt a profound sense of tranquility. This experience was more than just a tour; it was a celebration of a beloved tradition, brought to life with passion and elegance.

For those seeking a luxurious yet authentic taste of Tuscany, the SuprEvo Museum is an unmissable destination. It is a testament to the art of olive oil, offering a journey that is as enlightening as it is enjoyable.
