Tuscany honey tasting

Tuscany honey tasting, your sweet and luxury experience

Tuscany honey tasting, a moment of absolute relax, an experience of knowledge and wellness, a small class, spend an afternoon to better understand one of the most popular foods on Italians' tables, famous for its nutritive properties. Did you know that Italy is the only country in the whole Earth to have an official list of qualified people to analyze and express honey ratings? Are you ready for an exciting tasting in Tuscany?
Book your stay at Borgo I Vicelli Relais Firenze and live an authentic Tuscany experience, a journey discovering also the world of honey, a universe of details expressing and enhancing each specific territory, bringing men back to their roots. Immersed in the green of our country chic village, inside the Evoo Restaurant, we will talk together about production, technology, bees and honeys' characteristics. Then we will go to the tasting, following the rules outlined by Michel Gonnet, trying to use the senses, orienting them to the tasting before to the pleasure.
We will start from the exterior aspect (is it liquid or crystallized? Is it homogeneous or has impurities?), then considering the smell of the honey in the glass (a balloon) and finally to the taste in palate. The only recommendation we give you is: do not use perfumes, they could nullify your attempts and your tasting!
Tuscany and honey, a perfect marriage, continued over the centuries, a tradition also often recalled in the heraldry (such as in the symbol of the Island of Elba, three bees!). Reserve your room in this resort overlooking the Tuscan hills and prepare yourself to discover Tuscany experiencing amazing tastings. It's your real dream, your royal holiday.
