Founded in 1857, the artisanal oil mill in Blot-l'Eglise is a must for those wishing to discover the milling trade. Bernard Bouleau took over the mill in 1997. The visit allows you to (re) discover the astonishing flavors of yesteryear through fine virgin oils. Walnut, of course, but also rapeseed, hazelnut, almond, pistachio, sesame, peanut, carnation, pumpkin seed, camelina... In addition to these original ranges, there are a number of home-made products: pasta, Rocher de Blot cakes, Pouzzolanes des Volcans sweets, vinegars, honeys and jams...

Owner's Message
I bought the oil mill in 1997 to keep the tradition of artisanal production alive. A passion that goes back to my childhood.
I continue to produce virgin oil, without the addition of chemicals.
Located in Blot-L'Église in the Puy-de-Dôme, the oil mill is the last witness of an old activity in a canton which counted up to a dozen oil mills during the second world war.
The inhabitants still come to get their oil by the liter (at the pump) or bring their nuts to be pressed
