Olives, honey and cheese

This area is known for products created in the quiet of Istrian nature: aromatic honey, fragrant cheese and precious olive oil.

A visit to one of the local oil mills, dairies or beekeeping farms is both a gastronomic and educational experience, a perfect companion for all who are driven by curiosity.

The honey our bees collect comes from an area rich in wild medicinal and Mediterranean plants, and you can also find creams, soaps and syrups based on honey, natural souvenirs with the scent of Istria.

Our olive oil ranks among the highest quality in Europe, and family farms are known for olive groves that stretch across sunlit hills, where the uniqueness of the soil and the mild climate create ideal growing conditions.

Our cheese carries the taste of the Istrian countryside. It is produced on family farms inland, and in taverns and restaurants it is served with olives, prosciutto, honey or homemade bread.

Guests who seek more than an ordinary product will find a connection with nature, people and heritage here. In encounters with producers and walks through estates, in tasting warm bread with honey or cheese bathed in olive oil, lies the true experience of Istria: honest, fragrant and authentic.
