Olive oil is the healthiest of all the edible oils and plays a fundamental role in the Mediterranean diet. Today ancient olive orchards with indigenous varieties lay side-by-side modern plantations. Olive mills with cold stone presses are still functioning alongside modern mills.

Montenegrin olive oils are in a taste league of their own. Visit the olive groves peppered around Bar and Ulcinj to taste the olive oil and other local cuisine specialties prepared in the traditional way. While you sample the warm Montenegrin hospitality you can also discover the soaps, furniture and other diverse souvenirs made from the lovingly nurtured olive trees.
