Cork & Olive Lake Mary has Just Opened in the Target/Publix Shopping Center in Lake Mary at the corner of Lake Mary Boulevard and Greenwood Boulevard/Rinehart Road. I was in the market for a gift basket for a friend and I've been wanting to see the new store, I had a few minutes yesterday and I'm glad I stopped by. 
I was greeted by Shannon Wagner, the manager, and was offered a tasting... I told her not to laugh, but I'm allergic to alcohol (I know, it's a tragedy). I love wine and yes, I still enjoy the occasional cocktail, but I have to be very careful.
She suggested another type of tasting "Olive Oil"... Hence the "Cork & Olive" name... She offered a variety of olive oils and spice blends. I received an education about the different kind of olive oils and bought several as gifts. I found that I really like Spanish Olive Oil... It was delicious!
Cork & Olive Lake Mary hosts a variety of events featuring wine and olive oil tastings and tonight they are featuring a Tour de France of French Wines Hosted by Denis Morange and John Kerry, (Thursday July 31st 6-8 pm) and Friday, August 8th, 2008 from 5:00pm to 8:00pm they will be the site of "Network with your Peers" hosted by Select Magazine.
I'm very excited about our new addition to Lake Mary! Cork & Olive offers fine wine, olive oil and gifts. I thought that it would be a great location for a customer appreciation event... I'm looking forward to hosting an event there soon! Let me know if you want to attend!

Debbie, that looks like a great shop. One of us here is also allergic to alcohol, yet loves aroma of a fine wine. We both like olives as well. We'll put this shop on our list when we're in your area!
