Thursday 24 September, on the terrace of the “Cibus è Italia” Pavilion at the Expo, a space dedicated to the protagonists of the Italian food industry, Giovanni Zucchi and his team of blend masters met with 33 bloggers to spend an evening devoted to unique flavours.

Each guest had the chance to put themselves in the shoes of a blend master, tasting olive oils from a specific production area characterized by specific cultivars, appreciating their qualities in order to create the perfect blend with their own hands. In this way, each blogger was able to understand the complexity and art of oil blending and to create their own blend of extra virgin olive oil.

 

After participating in the blending experience, the guests had the chance to enjoy a buffet with dishes complemented by Zucchi extra virgin olive oils. And they’ll take with them a special memento: not only Giovanni Zucchi’s book “Olive oil doesn’t grow on trees” and a tasting glass, but also a bottle of an extraordinary blend of oil, the one they created with their own hands.
