Sarah Wolferstan

PROFILO:

As a Cultural Heritage practitioner and environmentalist, I am fascinated by the long-term view of food-making traditions, and the social and economic context of farming, as well as its ethics. Our family groves are in central Sicily, and when my children were young I moved to my husband’s mountain village in central Sicily and fell in love with our olive groves and all that it means to make oil.

It was while I was doing an EU Entrepreneur exchange with an olive oil farm mill and export business in Sicily that I was encouraged to take pruning course and complete my Level 1 Certified Taster course in 2015 with APO Catania, going on to do the advance course with ONAOO in 2025.

Profile

Elise Lagamba

Elise lives in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA. After a three-year educational path, from 2018 Elise is an ONAOO Professional Taster. Her passion for olive oil began in 2011 during an investigation into the quality of olive oil in local supermarkets. Her research resulted in a question: is the olive oil found on the shelves really extra virgin? Elise is also a traveller, gourmet and self-taught cook; loves to educate others on how to find superior quality extra virgin olive oils, especially in regions where traditional olive oil is not produced.

Profile

Giovanni De Marco

Giovanni was born and raised in Caserta. His roots and love for his land led Giovanni to open a modern business at the foot of the Trebulani Mountains in Pontelatone (Caserta). Through path of recovery, protection, and enhancement of the most significant and ancient olive specimens, he encourages the development of marginal areas, fulfilling a remarkable biodiversity defense function.

In 2018, he enrolled in the Official Technical Course of the ONAOO School, passing the selective tests and obtaining the Certificate of Physiological Suitability. In 2019, he decided to pursue a more in-depth training path, enrolling in the Advanced Course. He passed the final exams in 2021 and obtained the ONAOO Professional Taster qualification.

He also participated in various activities organized by the School, including the ONAOO Meeting in 2020 and online tasting sessions.

Profile

I do talks and public tastings for a variety of organisations including the UK Italian Trade Agency, FarmEd and prestigious cooking schools such as the Anna Tasca Lanza school in Sicily. I consult for food and olive farming businesses in the UK.

I am looking forward to sharing my experience in the UK, and to continue to learn with my colleagues at ONAOO.
