Michaela Bogner Author

Michaela Bogner's fascination with olive oils started between 1999 and 2005 when she lived near Florence and made first contact with regional olive farmers. In 2011 she was trained as an olive oil taster by the Florentine Chamber of Industry and Commerce and became a member of the Italian ANAPOO (i.e.: association of olive oil tasters). Since the olive harvest of 2011/2012 she imports high-quality olive oils from Italy, gives seminars on olive oil and organizes commented tastings. Her blog 'dasgoldderbauern.de' (i.e.: farmers' gold) gives comprehensive information about high-quality Super Olio. Focus online and the SWR interviewed her, the specialist magazine Merum and Delikatessen wrote about her seminars. Cettina Vicenzino is a food photographer, cook and author of cookbooks (e.g.: Cucina egetariana; echt Südtirol!; echt norddeutsch!; Mamma Maria! - Familienrezepte aus Italien; Das Sizilien Kochbuch [with Andreas Hoppe]).
