Tour Options

During booking, you can choose between the following options, both starting at the designated time in Casa Nepeta, 15 minutes from Noto, and lasting between 2.5 to 3 hours:

Distillery Visit + Botanical Printing

The experience starts with a 2-hour botanical printing workshop. Participants will collect leaves and plants from the estate to create art. You will learn chalcography and manual printing techniques to produce a small fabric tapestry or prints on paper. Following this, we'll explore the organic aromatic herb fields and discuss the properties of various herbs. The experience concludes with a tasting of the distillery's herbal spirits, with an option to pair it with local products.

Schedule: Monday to Sunday at 9:30

Distillery Visit + Truffle Hunting

In this option, participants will search for bianchetto and black truffles in the woods with a truffle expert and dogs for 2 hours. Collected truffles can be purchased. After the hunt, we will return to taste one of the herbal spirits and, optionally, a frozen Nepeta Spritz or regional products with truffle shavings. The experience concludes with a visit to the aromatic herb fields.
