Most people have poured olive oil a thousand times without ever thinking about how it got into the bottle. This team building experience at Esporão changes that, taking your group from the olive groves and mill through a full technical tasting to the creation of your own olive oil blend, a designed label and a personalised bottle to take home. Hands-on, genuinely educational and rooted in one of the Alentejo’s most extraordinary agricultural traditions.

The activity opens with a guided visit to the Esporão olive groves and mill, where your group learns the full production process from harvest to pressing, understanding the decisions and craft that go into every batch of oil. From there the session moves into a technical tasting, exploring the aromas, flavours and characteristics that distinguish different olive varieties and production methods. Each participant then creates their own blend, experimenting with combinations until they find something that genuinely reflects their own palate. The session closes with label design and the preparation of your personalised bottle, paired with artisan bread for tasting everything you have just created.
