Drinks of Bulgaria with Traditional Wine and Rakia Tasting

This experience is a passion project started by two law graduates turned professional guides and wine enthusiasts, Yoan and Ivelin (that’s us in the photo). Join us as we dive deep into Bulgarian history and culture through its drinks.

This isn’t just a tasting. It’s an invitation into a warm, cozy atmosphere where history comes alive. On this 2-hour journey into Bulgarian culture, you’ll explore over 3,000 years of wine and rakia-making traditions. A local host will guide you through five local wine varieties and the Balkans’ most iconic drink - rakia - perfectly paired with traditional bites.

Experience Bulgaria in a glass through its traditional drinks.

This experience means a great deal to us, as the history of wine and spirits is our personal passion. We’re truly excited to share it with you.

Маршрут

Experience Bulgaria in a glass through its traditional drinks. We’ll begin with an engaging yet insightful overview of Bulgarian history and the development of wine in lands. You’ll learn about Bulgaria’s main wine regions and their unique characteristics. The information is presented in an accessible way, making the experience equally enjoyable for complete beginners and seasoned wine lovers. Visual materials, maps, and examples will support the presentation.

Before moving on to the tasting itself, we’ll take a moment to introduce the basics of proper wine tasting for those who are interested - especially helpful if this is your first organized tasting. For more experienced participants, we’re happy to answer in-depth questions about the wine regions, grape varieties, and terroir.

The tasting features four local wines paired with cheese and bread. Each wine gradually increases in intensity, taking you on a journey through different parts of the country. The second part of the experience introduces rakia. We are going to try two local rakias. This strong fruit brandy is the most traditional and beloved drink not only in Bulgaria, but across the entire Balkan Peninsula.
