As you tour the production area, you’ll gain an appreciation for the craftsmanship and dedication that go into each and every batch of pasta.

Following the factory tour, we make our way to the evocative Museo del Pastificio, a museum dedicated to the cultural and historical significance of pasta in Italian society. This fascinating space is filled with interactive exhibits, historical artifacts, and displays of ancient pasta-making tools. Through these immersive exhibits and passionate storytelling, participants gain a deep understanding of the profound influence pasta has had on Italian gastronomy, both past and present.

To bring the meal to a perfect conclusion, guests are treated to a serving of crunchy cantuccini, the iconic Tuscan almond biscuits, paired with a glass of Vin Santo, a classic Italian dessert wine. The sweet and robust flavors of the cantuccini and Vin Santo create a harmonious balance, while the addition of a glass of wine, refreshing water, and a rich espresso or coffee offer the finishing touches to a refined and unforgettable meal. This experience provides a true taste of Italy, combining history, craftsmanship, and delicious flavors into one extraordinary adventure.
