Overview

  • Experience a day discovering the gold of Sardinian gastronomy: the saffron, a spice with a unique and special flavour that characterises several of the island's products. The experience will take place in Olmedo, a small town near Alghero in northwestern Sardinia.
    You will learn about the different stages of cultivation and subsequent uses of this spice in the kitchen. You will not miss a tasting of typical seasoned products, such as bread and cheese, inside an equally special and characteristic structure of the ancient culture of Sardinia: su Pinnettu.
    Be intrigued and amazed by little unexpected secrets!
