Description
A rakija tasting in Split is the classic Croatian way to start a stag night: four kinds of rakija, a local rakija expert and a ham and cheese platter for the group.
Rakija is Croatia’s traditional fruit brandy, and in Dalmatia it is on the table at every celebration – from weddings and family lunches to the first round of the night. During the rakija tasting, your expert pours four different rakijas and tells you what each one is made from, how it is produced and how locals drink it. Expect strong flavours and plenty of “živjeli!” (cheers).
The ham and cheese platter keeps the group going, and after about an hour you are ready for the bars and clubs of the Old Town. The rakija tasting starts at 16:00 and runs all year round.
Why book rakija tasting in Split with us
It is short, fun and very Croatian, works in any weather and costs from €45 per person. We plan it together with the rest of your weekend, so the tasting fits neatly before dinner and the night out.
Rakija is made from grapes (loza), plums (šljivovica), herbs (travarica) or walnuts (orahovac), and a good rakija tasting covers at least a few of these – ask your expert which one Dalmatians drink before lunch.
Make a full weekend of it: combine it with Craft Beer Tasting, Wine Tasting or a Traditional Croatian Meal. Not sure how to plan the weekend? Read our Split stag do guide.
