20 years of specialized experience
Olivoteque offers tailor-made gourmet trips, olive oil tastings and an exclusive selection of the best extra virgin olive oils from several countries.
Olive oil, travel, tastes and senses
My goal is for everyone to have the opportunity to taste and enjoy the good ingredients that you otherwise only experience at gourmet restaurants.
Through Olivoteque, I will introduce you to the best extra virgin olive oils that you can buy in the shop.
I also offer several types of olive oil tasting courses.
Through my unique gastronomic journeys, I will open the doors to special producers and restaurants that you may not otherwise have the opportunity to experience.
Take Olivoteque on a trip to the world of gastronomy!
Background
I discovered by chance that I have a well-developed sense of smell and taste.
In fact, at first I thought I was just sensitive! But when I became aware that it is a special trait, I decided to cultivate and further develop my abilities and make them my livelihood.
Over time, I have continuously educated myself and absorbed knowledge. I have a diploma as a tasting panel leader for olive oil through ONAOO, the Italian organization of olive oil tasters.
I was the first Dane to be admitted to the international cheese lodge Guilde des Fromagers and appointed Maître Fromager, which is the highest distinction, and in 2011 I received the honorary title of Ambassador for the Scandinavian countries for my dissemination of knowledge about cheese.
I often serve as a taster at gastronomic events and international competitions. The combination of my 20 years in the field of gourmet specialty purchasing and my multicultural background has opened many doors in the gastronomic world. And it has not made it any less important that I speak several languages fluently and know the facets of different cultures.
Food and gastronomy are my passion, and I want to share it with you at Olivoteque!
Why Olivoteque?
I started Olivoteque after many years of studying extra virgin olive oil.
I discovered, among other things, that buyers of olive oils had no idea what the difference was between a good and a bad olive oil. Furthermore, most olive oils a consumer could find were not from individual producers but purchased oil from traders (who buy as cheaply as possible from different origins).
Innovation
How do I convey the beauty of a really good extra virgin olive oil? I decided to do it a little differently and selected some of the best olive oils in the world not only from the mainland but also from the islands:
Olive oil from Spain
From Cordoba: Knolive has been named one of the best in the world several times (see the awards mentioned). From the Balearic Islands, specifically one of the islands most Danes have vacationed in: Mallorca: Reis de Mallorca
Olive oil from France
Provence, a region many Danes love to visit, Moulin Bonaventure.
Corsica: Moulin Oltremonti
Olive oil from Greece
Peloponnese : Metamorphosis Crete: Cretanthos
We are always looking to expand our range but only with the best olive oils the mainland and islands have to offer.
