Fans of mixology and Albanian culture will feel right at home with our Rakia Cocktail Tasting, which combines elements of traditional spirit creation with ancient tales from Albania’s storied tradition of mythology. This interactive class empowers participants to explore the integral practice of fermenting rakia, Albania’s beloved spirit, while learning how to blend modern and traditional cocktails and drinks with this strong liquor.
This class begins with a knowledgeable guide explaining the history and significance of rakia in Albanian daily life, celebrations and rituals. An expert mixologist will show you how to craft your own unique cocktails and drinks, using fresh, locally-sourced ingredients and utilizing techniques that are inspired by Albanian tradition. Working on and sipping your cocktail, you will step into the fantastical world of zana (fairies) and kulshedra (serpentine, dragon-like creatures) as you learn all about Albanian folklore and legendary creatures and heroes. Each tale is connected to the cocktail, giving participants a fusion of taste and cultural narrative.
This immersive experience offers a blend of flavor, history and folklore that will leave you curious to learn (and drink!) more. With every sip, participants will strengthen their appreciation for rakia and its role in Albanian tradition, all while learning about the gripping tales that have shaped the landscape of Albania’s heritage of fables.
