Best food and drink experiences around the world

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here

There’s nothing like sitting down in a Michelin-starred restaurant to a plate of artfully heaped linguine, coated with a velvety cream sauce and perfumed with shaved white truffles. But sometimes, merely consuming food isn’t enough.

You might want to learn more: go on a treasure hunt with a dog that sniffs out the truffles, speak with the woman whose family has owned that dairy farm for six generations, and learn to roll out tender pasta by hand. If that resonates with you, we’ve chosen eight activities from around the world that help shine a light on the destination’s food, culture and people.

Bordeaux’s renowned blend might include cabernet sauvignon, merlot, cabernet franc, malbec, petit verdot and even a splash of carménère sometimes. The art of the master blender is to combine those varietals to create a well-balanced profile, using cabernet sauvignon’s tannins to mellow the fruity notes of the merlot, for example.

To learn more about the art of wine blending in general — and about the specifics of the prestigious Bordeaux blend — you can take a private workshop when you’re visiting the region as part of a wine-focused trip around France. Under the guidance of a local sommelier, you’ll sample various blends to discern how different ratios taste. You can also learn about the region’s long and storied wine history. Not only do you have the chance to learn about Bordeaux and the science of blending, you’ll also get an insight into the subtleties of your own palate.

Though it’s relatively small, the Basque Country is known as a hotbed of culinary innovation — the region’s chefs collectively boast 32 Michelin stars. This well of talent is fostered by the region’s private gastronomic societies.

Traditionally closed to outsiders, they’re where Basques share recipes and techniques, urging each other to greater culinary heights. Over the years, these hothouses have produced exceptional chefs, as well as residents who appreciate excellent food.

Normally, Basque gastronomic societies are hidden to visitors, but we can arrange for you to get a rare glimpse inside their walls, visiting as a guest of one of the members as part of a wider trip around the Basque Country. While you’re there, you’ll watch a meal being cooked by locals as you learn about the history of the societies in general and that club specifically. Then you’ll sit down to share a communal meal with members of the society.

    Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry’s standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
