Taste of Culture

Taste and Culture on Lake Garda

Taste of Culture is a special evening that brings the best of local food and wine into one of the most fascinating places in Toscolano-Maderno, in the province of Brescia: the Paper Museum, in the heart of the Paper Mills Valley. An event that intertwines tastings, culture, and music, offering a different perspective on this corner of the upper Garda region of Brescia.

A Journey Through Twelve Businesses

The protagonist of the evening is the tasting journey that winds through the offerings of twelve local businesses — local farmers, butchers, restaurants, wine shops, and ice cream parlors — for a journey through the flavors and wines of the upper Garda region. The tasting takes place from 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM, in a curated atmosphere that highlights the products and producers of the area.

The Paper Museum and Music

During the evening, you can participate in a guided tour of the Paper Museum, which tells the centuries-old history of paper production in the Paper Mills Valley, one of the most important in Italy. Accompanying the experience is live music by the trio Tre Luppoli, performing in the museum's garden bar, completing an experience that combines taste, history, and entertainment.

Toscolano-Maderno and the Paper Mills Valley

Toscolano-Maderno is one of the pearls on the Brescia side of Lake Garda, known for its lakefront, villas, and precisely for the Paper Mills Valley, where fine paper was produced for centuries. Taste of Culture celebrates this heritage by combining industrial culture and gastronomic tradition, in an evening that invites you to rediscover the territory through its flavors.
