Celebrating the Taggiasca

The charming village of Taggia, dating back to the Roman Empire and set between the Ligurian sea and the inland of the Valle Argentina, hosted the second edition of Meditaggiasca on May 10-11. Beside its noble history and the beautiful religious buildings of the ancient hamlet, Taggia is well known for the excellent quality of the olives growing in the surroundings, named Taggiasca after the village (and known as Cailletier in the near French Riviera).
