After buying some El Montsec saffron in the hotel’s farm shop, we’ll head for the northernmost part of the Lleida Wine Route, where vineyards grow at almost 1,000 metres above sea level. In La Pobla de Segur, we’ll stop at a craft brewery that offers unique pairings such as beer and ice cream, as well as beermut – a modern take on the classic vermouth, paired with local cheeses and sausages such as secallona. We’ll also visit a ratafia factory, a family business that has been perfecting the maceration and distillation process since 1883.
