Host an Olive Oil Tasting!

Private tastings, team events, birthdays, client appreciation nights, and unforgettable gatherings centered around real food and bold flavor.

At Nuvo, we don’t just pour olive oil — we guide your guests through an interactive tasting experience where they learn how to taste freshness, discover incredible flavor pairings, and experience award-winning California olive oils the way they were meant to be enjoyed.

We can host up to 20 guests at our Long Beach, CA Tasting Room OR we can come to you. Take a look at some of our previous events below!

Most People Have Never Tasted Real Olive Oil

Fresh extra virgin olive oil is alive with flavor — grassy, fruity, peppery, buttery, vibrant. Once people experience the difference, they never look at olive oil the same way again.

Our guided tasting experiences teach guests:

  • How to properly taste olive oil
  • How to find High Polyphenol Oil
  • How to pair oils and balsamics with food
  • Why freshness changes flavor and nutrition
  • The difference between grocery store oil and fresh harvest oil

And yes — there’s a lot of sampling involved.

From a 135-Year-Old Orchard to Your Table

Nuvo Olive Oil began when two brothers helped revive their family’s abandoned California olive orchard and turned it into one of the most recognized olive oil brands in the country. Today, our oils are served by chefs, loved by home cooks, and ranked among some of the best olive oils in the world. 

But our favorite part is still watching someone taste real olive oil for the first time.
