Lively Olive Tasting Bar

Such an Amazing little Gem in PT! Friendly, knowledgeable staff, super chic interior, and best of all, amazing products all around!

Who would have thought to put these flavors in vinegar? Unbelievable. The Vermont maple and raspberry ones are amazing. Staff is friendly and the prices are reasonable.

This is a fun shop and that is full of vibrant favors and taste-​testing galore! My shopping companion had never tasted the flavored vinegars or oils and while she entered as a cynic, she left as a patron!
The lady in the shop (I assume the owner) was very helpful and friendly. I asked for pairing suggestion and she was more than happy to list numerous tasting options.

I admit, I was skeptical about an olive oil «tasting bar» when I walked in here. But I was pleasantly surprised by the wide selection and the friendly staff who really seemed interested and enthused about their products.
It’s a bit overwhelming when you first walk in: a brightly lit space packed with lots of fragile-​looking ceramic and glass jars everywhere. Against one wall you’ll see large jars of flavored oils and vinegars that can be decanted into different sizes of bottles. There are stacks of plastic sample cups everywhere and you’re encourage to give the flavors a try! They also provide little bread cubes for those who don’t just want to glug oil.
I couldn’t resist trying the out-​there flavors like blood orange and vanilla vinegar, lemon vinegar, fig vinegar, and chocolate vinegar. My palate isn’t sensitive enough to appreciate the nuances of olive oils, so I only tried one or two of those, but there was a large variety of flavors and truffle-​infused oils.
At $ 11 for the smallest olive oil and $ 10 for the smallest vinegar, the prices are somewhat higher than my usual grocery-​store stuff, but the infused flavors do make them special. The $ 10 mini sets are a great value if you just want to try a few things (though you’re limited to the pre-​boxed selection). A unique place and great for stocking up on hostess gifts or souvenirs!

What a nice, bright spot with a large variety of oils and vinegars to choose from. My husband and daughter probably tasted them all! They finally settled on the dark chocolate balsamic. Who knows what they’ll choose next time… There will be a next time!

Great selection of infused olive oils and infused balsamic vinegars starting at $ 10 a bottle. They are very friendly and the oils and vinegar is fantastic, if that is your thing. My only complaint was they don’t have a great selection on non-​infused products with different ages and regions. Minor quibble.
