Nice and small
Nice and small museum near Laganas. There's an outdoor exposition and then you go inside to taste the different olive oil strengths. Different olive oil flavours, lemon, garlic, orange and others. Interesting part of the greek culture. Free entrance, you can buy some products if u like.

Authentic
My friend and I came here as part of a package boat trip to see the turtles and visit the caves. It was a lovely last stop, and we got given plenty of information about how important olives are for the locals and the meaning of the olive trees. We also got a brief history of Greek mythology, as well as the process of making olive oil! It really is such an important part of the Greek economy and it was lovely hearing about how the locals sell their olives and make profit when they are turned into oil and sold! The owners are beyond lovely and really passionate about what they are doing, it really made the whole experience to hear it from authentic Greek individuals. We got given samples of amazing bread to dip in the various pots of olive oil, ranging from lemon, orange, garlic and chilli! We could not resist buying a bottle to take home with us- an amazing, authentic experience!

Historic and informative, great place to stop off and purchase an excellent product.
Wonderful experience. The staff were friendly and informative. The olive oil we sampled was top notch, served with home made bread, you are able to sample everything they sell. Considering the quality, it wasn’t expensive. The added bonus is that the packaging is designed to be leak free in cans so that it can be transported home easily. Smaller sizes make excellent gifts.
