Tour Aura Distillery with a tasting after in Buzet, Istria

by Destilerija Aura

About the experience

On more than 500 m2 of unique interior in our distillery in Buzet, Istria, visitors can see and experience the entire process of brandy production - from fruit fermentation, through distillation and maceration, to the final labelling and packaging. We have prepared four different packages for you, and it is up to you to choose the one that suits you best. You will taste different brandies and jams, and if desired enjoy a cold or sweet platter. We have an archive where visitors can leave a bottle of brandy with their name or message, for ageing and storage, until the next gathering at the same place.

Why this local experience is authentic

Starting from production for our own needs, we have developed into a family business with an emphasis primarily on the quality of our products. Our grandmothers made products at home without any preservatives or artificial ingredients and that is exactly our goal; that our products be of the same quality as those of our grandmothers!
