Imagine a journey through the green hills and golden valleys of Umbria, where the scent of freshly pressed olive oil blends with the intense aroma of truffles and cured meats, and the delicate hint of saffron.

The taste itinerary begins along the Olive Belt, a strip of hills stretching between Assisi and Spoleto, where centuries-old olive trees produce an excellent extra virgin olive oil with a unique, robust, and fruity flavour. Visiting local oil mills, you will discover the centuries-old care with which the "green gold" is produced, which, as chefs say, pairs wonderfully with black truffle, another Umbrian delicacy.

The route continues to Cascia, home of saffron, the most precious spice, which adds a golden hue to traditional dishes and ancient stories. Saffron fields open up to visitors, offering views of violet flowers and the chance to taste delicately flavoured recipes enriched with this unique spice.

Arriving in Norcia, a place that taught the world the art of pork butchery, the aroma of cured meats fills the air. Here, among artisanal shops, you can savour Prosciutto di Norcia (Norcia ham), salami, sausages, accompanied by the prized legumes from the nearby hills.

Finally, a stop at Castelluccio di Norcia, an enchanted plateau where the famous Lenticchia di Castelluccio (Castelluccio lentil) is cultivated in a landscape that, in spring, transforms into a riot of colours.

Every taste on this journey is a tribute to the land where nature intertwines with human craftsmanship, celebrating the authenticity of Umbrian flavours in a sublime crescendo of deliciousness and quality.

Enjoy your meal!
