Tasting the green gold in a private family-owned Olive Grove
Our journey begins in the picturesque region of Andalusia, where the sun-kissed groves of Seville oranges await. As you step into the orchard, the sweet fragrance of citrus blossoms fills the air, creating a sensory symphony that sets the tone for our adventure.
Guided by expert farmers and marmalade artisans, you’ll learn about the rich history of bitter oranges in Spain. These iconic fruits, known for their tart flavor and vibrant color, have been cultivated here for centuries, finding their way into traditional recipes and culinary treasures.
Amidst the verdant trees, you’ll have the opportunity to hand-pick ripe oranges, experiencing the joy of harvesting nature’s bounty firsthand. Feel the smooth texture of the fruit in your hands, and relish the tangy aroma that promises a burst of flavor.
Next, we venture into the heart of marmalade-making. In a rustic kitchen nestled within the grove, skilled chefs will reveal the secrets of crafting exquisite bitter orange marmalade. From the precise balance of fruit and sugar to the art of simmering the ingredients to perfection, every step of the process is a celebration of culinary craftsmanship.
As the marmalade gently bubbles in copper pots, filling the air with its irresistible scent, you’ll have the chance to savor a taste of freshly made preserves. Spread a spoonful on warm, crusty bread, and let the harmonious blend of sweet and tangy flavors dance on your palate.
