Artisan Cheese Shop Visit
Stop in at a local cheese shop where you can browse and purchase a selection of artisan cheeses and gourmet regional products — including the same delicious cheeses sampled earlier in the day.

Farm-to-Fork Lunch & Craft Beer
Relax over a seasonal two-course lunch at a beautiful hinterland restaurant focused on farm-to-fork dining. The venue also houses a small craft brewery, giving you the option to enjoy a tasting paddle of fresh beers, or choose a wine, cider, or soft drink.

Boutique Distillery Experience
Finish the day with an interactive tasting at a local distillery, sampling a range of award-winning spirits such as aromatic gins, smooth vodkas, and flavourful liqueurs — each reflecting the character of the region.
