The Christmas season has already begun in Berlin. The city is full of people and the Christmas markets certainly create a beautiful atmosphere. That's why the Berlin Oil Connection will be at the Saturday market in Schillerkiez all month long, even shortly before New Year's Eve. So you have the opportunity to give as a gift a bottle of extra virgin olive oil or whatever you wish. If you can't make it the market on Saturday, you can stop by the Café Laidak (Boddinstrasse 42) in Neükolln daily from 3pm to 6pm. I will be happy to meet you in person. Soon I will post about Christmas special boxes for your gifts. You can also find us in other locations. For that you can check here: https://berlinoilconnection.de/en/sie-finden-uns-unter/...
