Olive Mill: "Olive Oils and Balsamics" Geneva Shopping Tip by TRimer

Geneva Shopping: 5 reviews and 2 photos

The Olive Mill is a unique store where customers can come in and taste the different olive oils and balsamic vinegars each poured from Italian stainless steel tanks. They have a wide selection of different oils and vinegars: California, Spanish, Greek and some new ones from Australia. They also have flavored oils including Blood Orange, tangerine and fig (which is really good). You pick out which oil you want and they pour them for you in their own bottles.

What to buy: I bought the fig balsamic vinegar which reportedly the chefs in town use with the blood orange olive oil for salad dressing. I also bought some extra virgin olive oil that is used at the famed French Laundry in Napa Valley.

What to pay: I paid between $11 and $15 a bottle.
