Olive Oil Tasters is dedicated to making the vast world of olive oil a little smaller for everyone, via the Web. To participate, just become a member here and follow our schedule of tastings (TBA). We'll organize guided tasting events online, with knowledgeable artisan producers and experts as our guides. We'll arrange for discounts whenever we can. Our goal: find great olive oil for our kitchens! For ideas for all things olive oil, check out ILoveOliveOilBlog.com.

To lead these tastings, our guest hosts will use easy-to-navigate Web tools, whether it's Twitter, UStream (for live video feeds), and CoverItLive.

We also encourage members to use this powerful social networking platform to organize their own groups and events. Customize your own page. Network with fellow tasters and olive oil professionals. Heck, as our group grows, you can plan your own tastings here. Just find great olive oil!!!

For my birthday last year, my wife bought me a set of six of these official olive oil-tasting glasses. As far as I know, only Corti Bros. in California stocks them-- and there appears to be only 78 left in stock(!). Do you have such glasses? If not, a wine glass will get the job done among friends.
