What you can expect

Visiting this ancient olive tree is not just about seeing a tree. It's about connecting with the land. It is about tasting the 'liquid gold' that has flowed through these lands since time immemorial. A flavor that carries the sun of Ribatejo and the resilience of this historic tree.
There is a unique energy beneath this olive tree. It is an invitation to slow down, breathe, and feel the weight—and the lightness—of three millennia.
The experience is also a culinary one, as it includes a tasting of local dishes in addition to the traditional tiborna (warm bread dipped in olive oil).
While the Roman Empire was rising and falling, and while Portugal was becoming a nation, this olive tree was already here, silent, watching the world unfold.
On this experience, you will meet the oldest inhabitant of Portugal: the Mouchão Olive Tree awaits you in Mouriscas with inspiration and lightness!
The experience is even more memorable with the aforementioned “Millennial” tasting.
