While there, we visit a small coffee shop, drink traditional Bosnian coffee from freshly roasted coffee beans and get to know all the fuss about drinking coffee in Bosnia & Herzegovina.

Vineyard region

In the early afternoon we stop by biodynamic vigneron Brkić who would walk us through his wine cellar where we would taste his limited edition wines with small bites. Our journey continues to Nuić winery, a synonym for quality, technology and dedication. We would have a walk through their magnificent vineyards, a quick tour in the winery and taste their premium wines. Our last stop is Etno House, a true hidden gem and a rustic tavern located in the neighbor village where we would have a traditional long hour lunch.

Mostar – Old Bridge and Café de Alma

Herzegovina Old Bridge Tour

Our first stop in the morning is in the city of Mostar at Old Bridge (Stari Most), a 16th century Ottoman bridge enlisted on UNSECO World heritage list. Old Bridge is hump-backed stone arch bridge that rises over the river of Neretva and connects two parts of Mostar. While it is only 29 meters long, it stands as a symbol of reconciliation within multicultural urban settlement. No morning should pass by without a proper coffee, so we stop by Café de Alma coffee shop just near the Old Bridge where we taste traditional Bosnian coffee from freshly roasted coffee beans with a Turkish delight. While there we get to hear amusing stories about the ritual of coffee drinking in Bosnia & Herzegovina and why people take it so seriously. Roasted coffee is available for purchase.

Brkić Winery – A Story of Biodynamic Grapes: Cellar Visit & Premium Wine Tasting

Brkić is a small family driven boutique winery with a very distinctive viticulture approach and wine making philosophy. A wine maker Josip Brkić is one of the pioneers in the region who uses biodynamic principles in his vineyard and makes iconic wines. During the cellar visit you get familiar with the biodynamic farming methods and wine production. Later on in the lounge room we taste 4 wines along with homemade cheese, prosciutto, olive oil and bread. Find out how the biodynamic principles of cosmic forces under influence of the sun and the moon impact Earth and the plants and how to be in-tune with the cosmos.
