Aubocassa Olive Oil Mill

This third-generation family olive farm produces some of Mallorca's finest organic oil using traditional stone mills that date back centuries. You'll get a proper education on olive cultivation as you walk through groves planted in the 1800s, then watch the cold-pressing process in their working mill. The tasting includes four distinct estate oils (from mild to peppery) served with crusty bread, local tomatoes, and sea salt while you overlook terraced groves that stretch toward the Tramuntana mountains.

The experience starts in the groves where Maria or her son Miguel explain pruning techniques and point out different olive varieties before moving to the mill building. The stone pressing wheels are massive, and you can smell the fresh oil in the air during harvest season. The tasting room has floor-to-ceiling windows facing the oldest part of the property, and they're generous with portions. You'll learn to identify flavor notes like grass, artichoke, and pepper while sampling oils made from Arbequina, Picual, and local Mallorcan varieties.

Most visitors rush through the grove walk, but that's where you learn the most about why their oil tastes different. The tasting costs €15 per person and includes generous bread portions plus a small bottle to take home. Skip the expensive gift sets in their shop, the single-variety bottles at €12 each are better value. Book ahead in October and November when they're actually pressing, otherwise you'll just see empty equipment.
