Additional Information

This initiative has come to fruition to underscore the significance of bees and serves as a platform for sharing and spreading awareness among visitors and travelers traversing Ventosa about the critical role bees play in biodiversity. Moreover, it’s a hub to savor various homemade meads. Blended with the region’s unique gastronomy, visitors get to relish the garden’s assortment of grilled mountain meats drizzled with honey and pollen, and accompanied by sparkling meads and fruits. Additionally, there are barrel meads complemented by vegetables from the Huerta Riojana. The grand finale is the soothing Infusions or coffees with a variety of honeys from local aromatic plants. The highlight is that all these are without any sugar. \nÁlvaro Garrido, a seasoned beekeeper, started crafting mead, a customary alcoholic beverage originating from the Nordic culture and linked to the Viking world, a few years ago.
