Description of the attraction
The location of the tasting room "Celtic courtyard pod Lovachka" is very interesting. It is located in Mukachevo in an ancient 45-meter basement, at the foot of Mount Lovachka, as its name suggests. Grapes have been grown on the slopes of this mountain for more than five centuries, starting from the 14th century. And the definition of "Celtic" is associated with the nearby ancient Celtic settlement - opidum.
The tasting room offers visitors several types of palenki and fruit infusions - the famous Transcarpathian plum brandy, nutcracker, sweet cherry, willow herb, persimmon, sprinkling, peach liqueur, etc. Here you can also enjoy three types of homemade ale - Celtic, ginger, corn. You will be offered homemade cider, several varieties of vermouth, cooked with thirty (!) Herbs. There are also exclusive aged drinks - gin, schnapps, grappa, orujo and rakia of our own production. Treats include pickles, corned beef and homemade lard sandwiches.
Old stone terraces have been preserved here since ancient times. Another interesting historical and agronomic fact is connected with Mount Lovachka. In the middle of the last century, plantations of subtropical crops were established here as an experiment: lemons, tangerines, oranges, etc. The experiment was led by Academician Chkheidze. But only tea has undergone acclimatization, its plantation is located on Mount Cervonia. Some types of subtropical cultures have chosen the territory of the agritourism.
