Chianti and Pecorino cheese tour from Florence
Joined 2023
Undoubtedly, this food tour epitomizes our ideal philosophy. It's tragic to witness our beloved country traditions diminish amid relentless scientific and technological progress. The stars of this tour are the cornerstones of our regional culinary traditions: Pecorino, the beloved Tuscan cheese; wheat, for homemade pasta; red wine, and olive oil. Once staples for poor families, now esteemed delicacies.
