Three things to bring home from Salò
Directly from the producer on the lake!
CEDRAL TASSONI
Few people know that CEDRATA TASSONI is a historical product produced in the city of Salò.
A few steps away from us you will find the shop where you can buy the famous yellow bottle just bottled and other preparations of this historic company as the different types of tonic, elderberry, bitter peach, myrtle, cedar or lemon. You can also enjoy an original alcoholic or non-alcoholic long drink prepared by Alberto.
SAN FELICE DEL BENACO OIL CONSORTIUM
A consortium of producers, the real ones, who look after the centuries-old trees with exemplary dedication, check the ripening, do the harvesting themselves and finally arrive at the pressing.
Here you can taste and buy the final result of this journey accompanied by an attendant, who is available to explain to you how to taste an oil, the flavours, the scents, the aromas as well as going into the technicalities, such as that the acidity of an oil is something that can only be determined by chemical analysis and not by taste.
Did you know that LAKE GARDA is a WINE area?
The Valtenesi is a hilly area of morainic origin that extends on the Brescia side of Lake Garda and is therefore easily accessible from our lake area. The hills are gentle and in sections interrupted by limited areas of flat land and allow the vines grown here to grow in an ideal micro climate represented by the right mix of sun, temperature and rainfall.
Here are produced wines of excellent quality such as the Valtènesi Rosso DOC which is red with a delicate colour and fruity and spicy notes on the nose, or the Valtènesi Chiaretto Rosa DOC, obtained from a brief contact of the must with the crushed grapes which allows the extraction of the colouring substances, generally in a very light manner, it is a unique wine in its very pleasant characteristics which make it a decidedly exclusive product of the territory.
Here you can visit some producers who will let you taste their products before you buy them.
