It is easily one of the most unique tasting experiences I've experienced in my life. If you thought you knew olive oil, think again! My wife and I stopped by on a Monday afternoon and we were thoroughly impressed with how many different types of flavored olive oils and balsamic vinegars were freely available for visitors to try out in the shop. As we worked our way through the store, we stumbled upon an olive oil tasting flyer. Curious about how we could sign up for the tasting, we asked the staff member at the desk and found out they were done with tastings for the day: we'd have to come back tomorrow when more staff were available. Lucky for us, we had plans to stay another day in Sonoma: we signed up right away for the olive oil tastings the next day at 11:00 a.m. When we showed up the next day for our tasting, we were brought to the back room with a staff member. She was friendly, personable, and extremely knowledgeable and organized walking us through the olive oil production process. For each of the olive oils and balsamic vinegars we tried, they were described in meticulous details: from how they were made, what we should be looking for as we tasted them, as well as the chemical composition. Near the end of the tasting, we were also guided to mix different infused olive oils with flavored balsamic vinegars to change things up. This was my favorite part of the whole experience. If you're like me, you'll walk out from the tasting wanting to buy 10 bottles. 10/10 would recommend this experience if you're passing through Sonoma.

We tried calling the phone number multiple times and no one picked up. Also, knocked several times. Two other people arrived as well who tried knocking and calling to no avail. We waited until 3:45 until we gave up and left. After we left, we received an email saying we had been refunded and at the bottom of the receipt it said "We apologize as this order did not show up on our calendar until today. We look forward to hosting you in the future. Thank you, Sheana" (see attached screenshot). I think this is deeply unprofessional on so many levels. Even if the reservation had only shown up today on their calendar (despite us booking it several weeks prior) and they weren't prepared, they had all the time before 3pm to reach out via email or phonecall to say they couldn't make the class. They didn't even try reaching out and instead we received a refund after the scheduled class time. Lack of communication is such a bummer considering we set aside a couple hours for this and we were so excited. Also, this is located in Sonoma which means it's out of the way for people who are visiting Napa and its vineyards. That's typically not an issue but considering we had to drive out the way and we got cancelled on after we waited for them is where it is an issue. Deeply unprofessional situation and hope they improve on communication soon.

However, there was a vendor from Sonoma Gourmet who asked me if I would like to sample their EVOO in four different flavors - sassy roasted chiles, groovy orange, smooth basil parmesan and primo garlic and herbs. I tried all four EVOO's with chunks of French bread. All EVOO's were excellent and each had its own distinct flavor. The vendor also gave me three one dollar coupons. The decision to select which EVOO to purchase first was not an easy one because I like them all. I could not purchase all four flavors, and then have a heavy load of groceries to carry home via a bus ride. Because my mind was on some roasted red potatoes and other roasted veggies, the garlic and herbs EVOO was what I purchased. I was so excited about this purchase that I completely forgot to use the coupon. The EVOO's are in dark bottles to maintain its freshness, and best thing of all they are non-GMO verified. Nob Hill Foods will be selling this product soon. I'm glad the vendor stopped me in my track to sample their ware.
