Explore Centuries of Olive Oil Craftsmanship at a Historic Perugia Mill Near Templar Abbey


Step into a world where culinary excellence meets rich cultural heritage at a historic olive mill located near the Templar Abbey of San Bevignate in Perugia. This site has been producing high-quality olive oil since the 1300s and remains a living testament to the enduring legacy of the Trampolini family, who have managed the estate since 1785. Today, the facility functions as a dedicated Museum of Olive Oil, preserving artifacts that trace the evolution of production.


Your immersive experience begins with a guided tasting session featuring a diverse array of single-origin cultivars. You will sample varieties such as Leccino, Frantoio, Dolce Agogia, Moraiolo, Peranzana, and Nocellara, alongside expertly crafted blends like the Family Reserve and various organic selections. For those seeking a creative twist, the tasting includes ten distinct spiced and flavored olive oils, each carefully curated to highlight their unique aromatic profiles and the specific characteristics of the local Umbrian soil.


Complementing the olive oils are artisanal crostini served with a selection of gourmet spreads. Guests can enjoy black and green olive pâtés, traditional olive preserves, and other indulgent local delicacies that showcase the region's agricultural bounty. This tasting is designed to provide a comprehensive understanding of the sensory qualities of premium oils, allowing participants to appreciate the subtle differences in texture, color, and flavor that define high-quality production methods in central Italy.


The visit concludes with a deeper look into the historical significance of the mill and its role in the local community. By exploring the museum and the surrounding grounds, visitors gain insight into the labor-intensive processes that have defined olive cultivation for generations. This experience is perfect for those looking to connect with the authentic traditions of Umbria while enjoying the serene atmosphere of a historic estate that continues to honor its ancient roots.
