Buzet: Rondleiding door de familiedistilleerderij Aura met proeverij en hapjes

Step inside a hundred-year-old cellar in the heart of Buzet and be embraced by the warmth of the space and the friendliness of the people who work there. Be welcomed by irresistible aromas of herbs and spices used to create exclusive brandies and liqueurs.

Following their grandmothers’ recipes, the Aura family distillery produces 29 different herbal and fruit brandies and liqueurs, 4 types of gin, 5 types of cream liqueurs, and 9 types of jams. The ingredients for these premium products are handpicked in areas far from settlements and roads—on the slopes of Ćićarija mountain overlooking Buzet, on the island of Cres, as well as in their grandmother’s and mother’s gardens. With great care and love, they are transformed into exclusive products worth savoring.

Explore the entire production process—from maceration of herbs and wild fruits, to the distillation of Karbun gin and the famous Aura Teranino, all the way to bottling, labeling, and packaging. The distillery also features a shop with all Aura delicacies, all of which are available for tasting.

Enjoy a tasting of 3 types of brandies or liqueurs, 2 Aura cocktails or spritzes of your choice, a sweet platter with 2 types of jam and 3 types of chocolate, and a savory platter with cheese, prosciutto, buđola, olives, Aura extra virgin olive oil, artichokes, sun-dried tomatoes, and bread.
