5.00We loved the owner’s explanation about olive harvesting while in his grove! The olive oil, balsamic vinegar, wine tasting, and food was amazing! So delicious! You could tell that his grandparents were proud of him for taking over the farm and expanding the business. This tour was a highlight of our trip to Sicily! Thanks for the amazing hospitality!

5.00We took this tour of the olive groves and then did an olive oil, balsamic vinegar, wine and limoncello tasting. All we can say is that it was fantastic! Francesco was great. He’s studied agriculture and oeneology(wne making) and it shows. He presents a very informative tour (and is multi-lingual too) and answered all our questions about olives and wine. We then were literally welcomed into his grandparents home by Francesco’s grandmother and grandfather for a tasting of all of Essensily’s Sicilian made products. It was like sitting down for Sunday dinner with family. As we tasted each product, we feasted on complimentary foods; bread and cheese with the olive oil, caponata, sun dried tomatoes and olives. Everything is delicious! The wines are great. The balsamic vinegar and glaze, perfect. And the limoncello, served chilled and in chilled glasses was the crowning jewel. This tour and tasting was well worth it and highly recommended.
Great expedient, highly recommend

5.00This is a wonderful 2 part experience, the first part is a tour of the owner's olive grove BY the owner, Francesco, and the second part is an olive oil and wine tasting of Essensily's products in Francesco's grandparents' house. Truly intimate and incredible experience.

5.00The olive grove tour was informative and fun and off the beaten path. Francesco was an engaging host. The lunch we had at his grandparent’s home was a special treat. We got to taste the olive oil which is quite good. We also tasted 2 types of balsamic vinegar that they produce. There were 3 wines 2 white and 1 red that were of good quality as well. Lastly we finished with a delicious limoncello. It was a delightful afternoon and a great experience of the Sicilian culture. I would highly recommend this tour it is such a special and unique day
Warm hospitality. The most amazing extra virgin olive oil, wine, limoncello, and food was delicious.
