Amazing shop in Berat - I went to visit Berat due to its UNESCO heritage. While descending from the castel street, we entered in this unique shop that was offering local wine tasting and eco-friendly gifts. Indeed the shop owner and his wife showed us the products are hand-manufactured by a Berat-based no-profit organization helping people in need within the local community.
I bought a tote bag for my girlfriend and she absolutely loved it while we enjoyed the amazing food and wine.
What a nice surprise!

Wine, Raki and fruit - As a solo traveler it was a great to meet others over local foods and wine!
We started with a local blush, vinyard only 15 minutes from Berat. Local cheeses, olives and bread.
We then had local fruit dessert. I chose Mandarin, Walnut and cherry. It's super cool, the entire fruit/but is soaked and preserved in a sweet syrup, including the walnut shell, mandarin rind! And 100% edible and very tasty! A local raki was paired with this as well! Helps to offset the sweetness!
Then we finished with a tea and local honey, I chose mountain tea that is grown locally in Berat. Very aromatic and tasty!
Definitely recommend this experience!
