TUSHETI FOOD TOUR - Feast With The Mountain Gods
Overview
Feast With The Mountain Gods
Our Tusheti tour takes us high above Kakheti’s Alazani Valley to a secluded Shangi-La of snow-tipped peaks, ancient settlements clinging preposterously to the sides of mountains, rolling meadows and rushing mountain rivers. This is Tusheti, land of the Tush, courageous mountaineers famed for their horsemanship and bravery on the battlefield. It is also the wildest and one of the most ecologically unspoiled regions in the Caucasus, linked to the lowlands by a formidable road open only in the summer months.
We explore Tusheti through the people maintaining its standout mountain food culture, a heritage infused with pagan traditions, natural ingredients and old world know-how. We will also have hands-on experiences helping to prepare the foods we put on our tables, visiting imposing villages of stone and meeting venerated locals for a culture fix that includes their tales of mountain life.
