Reviews
"The olive tour was amazing! It was nice to see the farm, get to know the process and then do the tasting. It’s a nice small group so you’re free to ask questions and the atmosphere is good. The host was super nice and had a really nice way of explaining about the farm."
"Wonderful experience! Frosso was so hospitable and did an amazing job of explaining the history of the farm and how it is ran. We were not only shown the olive trees and explained the different varieties, but we were also shown the garden and the chickens. The olive oil tasting was very enjoyable and tasty. We were served tomatoes and cucumbers from the garden with fresh bread and lots of olive oil. Frosso was so friendly and I felt I had met a new friend. Great experience!!!"
"Our host was very lovely, sharing a lot of interesting information about olive history in Corfu and the process of olive oil making. We had a tour of the olive tree orchard accompanied by the house cats, and Baba, a gentle giant dog. The tour ended with an olive oil tasting. Our host was kind enough to share some local insights as well. Overall a good value, highly recommend as a special and unique experience in Corfu."
"We really enjoyed our tasting and tour. The guide was super knowledgeable and friendly. Much more time was spent in the farm explaining about the history, techniques and general information about the olives and garden area. Wonderful tasting, conversation and the animals were a great addition. Very good experience for the money if you're in the area. Would highly recommend!"
"We really enjoyed this tour. The grounds were beautiful and photogenic, and our host was so lovely. We appreciated that she took her time, and it felt like she was a friend happily showing and sharing info about the grounds and the production of making oil. It was nice to gain some history as well as interesting information about the olives and the oil they produce. The tasting of the oil, with the group all gathered together sharing at one table, was really nice. We loved the antics of the little cats and the docile dog as well. Our bottles we purchased are safely tucked away to be enjoyed back home. Thank you!"
"This experience exceeded our expectations. Very nice tour of the grounds. Learning the history of the farm made the experience all the more special. The tasting itself was interesting in that we got to taste the olive oil without food, which is something we don’t normally do. I enjoyed the bread and vegetable spread after, which we did not expect. I highly recommend visiting this farm and tasting olive oil in its purest form."
"Wonderful and extremely informative tour with a guide who spoke fluent English. We learnt a lot about local history, organic farming techniques and had a marvellous tasting at the end with no hard sell to buy products. The whole thing felt very friendly and welcoming in a gorgeous setting. Particular highlight was the dog and herd of cats that kept us company, hunting and playing in the olive trees as we walked by."
Dr. Kavvadia’s organic farm lies off the northsouth highway ten kilometers north of Corfu town in central Corfu.
From the middle of the last century Doctor Kavadia began his life-long work of transforming the old mill into a repose, a house that could calm and recenter his soul.
The farms’ history began in the late 18th century when a small olive press was built by the olive grove.
Since 2012 Dr. Kavvadia’s farm is the home of the award winning Dr. Kavvadia olive oil.
