Highlights

The Sweet & Spicy Experience is a tour into the world of the two most famous food products in Calabria: The red lady, Tropea’s red onion, and the Queen of Calabria, the Nduja from Spilinga. Two real stars in the kitchen, loved by the greatest national and international chefs. The Cipolla Rossa of Tropea, known for its sweetness, is a humble ingredient of the Calabrian peasant tradition with many curative properties. The Nduja, a traditional spicy spreadable salami with an intense and unique taste, symbolizes an entire region. During the sweet & spicy experiences, guests will visit an Onion farm and a Nduja factory, discovering all the farming steps, the production inputs, and the life cycle of plants and animals. Learning how to pair and how to use them in the kitchen. Tasting a top selection of both products directly on the farms.

About Tropea

Tropea is a clifftop town on Calabria's Tyrrhenian coast, with a church on a sea rock, white beaches below and views to the volcano of Stromboli.

Tropea perches on a sandstone cliff above the Tyrrhenian Sea, on the stretch of Calabrian coast known as the Costa degli Dei, the Coast of the Gods. Its old town of narrow lanes, balconied palaces and a Norman cathedral leads to the cliff edge, where the church of Santa Maria dell'Isola stands on a rocky headland that is joined to the shore.
