You can now purchase high quaity, REAL olive oil and balsemic vinegar at OG Cucina. We are so exciteded to be working with Sarafino for so many reasons. They are Canadian importers, distributors and educators that have direct partnerships with family farms and producers, mainly originating from the family’s home province of Calabria in Italy. This is also the region where my family is from. We are proud to support these family-run, Italian companies because they have a deep respect for and intimate relationship with the land they cultivate and live on.

At OG Cucina, we are dedicated to keeping the old ways alive, so this is a natural fit. When you purchase one of these products through OG Cucina, you can be confident that the distributor either has a family olive estate, or has met the the families that operate the olive estates and mills.

Take the time to read the descriptions in the online shop. Link in bio.

Ravioli alla Nerano. Inspired by that delicious Amalfi spaghetti dish made famous by Stanley Tucci. Filled with caramelized shredded zucchini from Fresh at killara Station, local garlic, whole milk ricotta, provolone, Pecorino Romano DOP and love. Dropped off some packages at Sourdough and Sausage at 201 Highland so if you didn’t manage to snag a pack from our online shop, you have a backup! Great with our slow roasted Cherry Tomato and Garlic confit, a waterfall of Parmigiano Reggiano DOP and a sprinkle of peperoncino to give it that southern Italian kick.

Heirloom Ontario tomatoes, Ontario sweet corn, Ontario peaches, fresh mozzarella, olive oil, quick pickled red onions, fresh basil, maldon salt and ground pepper. I think that even the Caprese police would approve! 😋

OLIVE OIL TASTING IN THE FOREST

Presented by OG Cucina in partnership with Sarafino

Nestled in the forest at Hårtwood, this is not your average tasting event. Join OG Cucina at WINE BAR IN THE WOODS, Fort Treehouse Co.’s wine bar in the woods, for a late summer afternoon dedicated to one of the Mediterranean’s oldest culinary traditions — true extra-virgin olive oil — against a backdrop of sunlight and forest views in the Haliburton Highlands.

TASTING IS BELIEVING
Olive oil fraud is more widespread than most people realize, and the only real way to spot a true extra-virgin is to taste it side by side with the fakes. Led by Angelo Tramonti, Certified Olive Oil Taster and founder of Sarafino, guests will take part in a structured blind tasting of up to six olive oils — learning to identify the aromas, flavours, and defects that separate the real thing from what’s sitting on most grocery shelves. Angelo has spent over two decades working directly with family-run olive groves in Italy, and brings that firsthand knowledge to a hands-on, interactive session (not a lecture).

Each guest receives a full tasting kit — cups, tasting sheets, brochures, and infographics — plus a sample size bottle of oil to take home.

For an additional $5.00 per person, we will include an official olive oil tasting glass to take home!

STAY A WHILE
Once the tasting wraps, there’s no need to rush off. The Hydda invites guests to linger — settle in at the wine bar, order something off the menu, or wander the trails into the surrounding forest.

EVENT DETAILS
Date: Sunday, August 30th, 2:00 – 4:00 PM
Location: The Hydda, Fort Treehouse Co. — 1251 Geeza Road, Minden, ON (Hårtwood)
Price: $50 per person
Includes: Blind tasting of 6 olive oils, full tasting kit, take-home sample size of olive oil

Products available for purchase afterwards. Registration link https://square.link/u/40mAwQ7z
