Giro delle distillerie

An afternoon to enjoy at your own pace, moving from one distillery to the next to discover the world of grappa and local spirits up close.

Five stops, five encounters with the distillers and five different perspectives on a tradition shaped by raw materials, craftsmanship, time and knowledge passed down through generations. At each stop, you’ll hear stories and anecdotes directly from the producers, taste the featured spirit and enjoy a paired finger food created by chef Paolo Betti using products from the Mese del Gusto.
