Owner's Message
The Oulibo cooperative has been producing and marketing olives and olive oil in Languedoc since 1942. It is France's leading producer of table olives, notably Lucques du Languedoc. L'Oulibo is also "the most visited company in Languedoc and 8th in France".
L'Odyssée de l'olivier is the only interpretation center in Languedoc Roussillon that tells the story of the olive tree and its culture through the ages: staging, sound and light, educational trails, multimedia screens and sound effects invite you to discover the king tree of the Mediterranean.. Children can enjoy a treasure hunt in the olive grove. End your visit with an introduction to tasting the cooperative's oils and olives.
Members' reviews on L'OULIBO
Nous sommes sincèrement désolé que votre interlocuteur n'ait pas pu vous donner de réponse précise concernant le rendement au litre. Utiliser une échelle de mesure en bouteille est souvent mieux compréhensible pour les personnes qui apportent leurs olives ce qui explique la réponse que vous avez eu. Concernant le rendement au litre sachez qu'il vous faut en moyenne 8kg d'olives pour obtenir environ 1l d'huile (ce rendement peut varier selon le climat, la taille des olives et la variété).
Nous espérons toutefois vous revoir à l'Oulibo.
Bien cordialement.
