Guided by an expert of the Associazione Guide Turistiche di Bolzano, the adventure begins with a walk through the village's historic centre, where you'll wander medieval alleys and ascend Kofel, a wooded hill overlooking Castelrotto, for breathtaking views of the Sciliar and the Dolomites.

During the visit, you will have the opportunity to explore the distillery's spaces, learn more about the production methods, and taste some of the iconic spirits of the Dolomites, as well as bringing a small bottle of spirit home with you, as a memento of this experience.
