Olive oil mill and delicatessen products. The History of the House will be told to you around a tasting at the oil bar.

Description

The Moulin des Pénitents is located in Les Mées in the Alpes de Haute-Provence. On the banks of the Durance, we produce exceptional olive oils, Haute-Provence AOP (conventional or organic) and Provence AOP (conventional or organic). “Aglandau” is the most widespread olive variety in this territory. We are proud to be producers of oils and composers of taste since 1885. This is the result of meticulous work, from the olive that we receive from our partner farmers, to its transformation.

At the exit of Les Mées, on the road that leads to Oraison, the Olivier museum and its shop are open all year round from Tuesday to Saturday from 9:00 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. and from 14:30 p.m. to 19:00 p.m.
