About the experience

Gastro Museum Bura is an experience where the flavors, traditions, and spirit of Dalmatia come together in a one-of-a-kind tasting experience. Located between the villages of Jasenica and Maslenica, at the foot of the Velebit mountain, this experience brings you closer to the heart of the Zadar region. Start your visit by stepping into the old bauxite mine, where a short film introduces the impact of local wind Bura on life and food in this area. The tasting begins with a choice of local brandy, followed by two carefully selected types of Pag cheese, two varieties of olive oil, and a glass of white wine of your choice. You'll then enjoy a selection of marinated and salted fish, rich Dalmatian prosciutto, locally made pancetta, and Sokol – a traditional cured meat from Nin. To finish, a glass of red wine is served alongside a spread of traditional sweets from the Zadar region: dried carob, figs, fig cake, almonds, candied orange peel (arancini), and more.
