Olive oil is essential and has gained space at Quinta do Tedo as a Rural Tourism and Gastronomy activity. An essential product in the distinguished Mediterranean Diet, a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, it's based precisely on food that respects the land and biodiversity. It's also about strengthening family and friendships while enjoying a meal.
