About Marisolio Tasting Bar - Olive Oils & Balsamic Vinegar
Marisolio Tasting Bar is an olive oil cooperative and gourmet grocery store located in the heart of Murphys, California. It offers exceptional products crafted from the finest olives and grapes. The tasting bar provides a culinary journey to discover the rich flavors and aromas of premium olive oils and aged balsamic vinegars. The store is cute and well decorated, giving off happy Italian vibes with a warm atmosphere. The staff is kind, helpful, and more than happy to answer questions and make personalized suggestions. Tastings are a must; for $3.50, customers can sample six delicious oils and vinegars, with bread available for an additional fee. This tasting fee is waived with a purchase over $30, which many find to be a fair deal. Customers love being able to sample the quality flavored oils and vinegars, though it can be hard to choose favorites. While some feel the products are expensive, others find the prices fair compared to similar establishments. A loyalty card program has been criticized as feeling like a scam or an interest-free loan, as it requires fifteen purchases for a free bottle. Despite this, many customers absolutely love the place, find the oils and vinegars awesome and amazing, and plan return visits every time they are in the area.
