We’re looking ahead this summer to a big international conference in California that will spotlight our favorite topic: extra virgin olive oil.

“Beyond Extra Virgin” is billed as a “must attend” gathering for chefs and other culinary movers and shakers. It will run June 21-23. The University California Davis Olive Center, the Robert Mondavi Institute for Wine and Food Science and The Culinary Institute of America (CIA) at Greystone are presenting the event.

California Olive Ranch is a sponsor. The gathering is described as “the largest conference on olive oil flavors, cooking and culture ever to be held in the United States.”

Conference participants will “learn to identify the defects commonly found in oils marketed as extra virgin.” And they will get to witness first-hand how extra virgin is being used in food.

The first two days of the conference will be held at the UC Davis campus in California’s Central Valley. Day three will move to the CIA’s Greystone campus in the Napa Valley.

We’re excited to be a part of this seminal event. We hope you can participate.

Bon appétit,
