Cul-Tour Gin: History, Medicinal Herbs and a Gourmet Tasting
Guided by Rosa Bianco, a licensed tour guide, this journey begins in the historic centre of Salerno, a crossroads of cultures and power since the Lombard era. The route continues through the Rione Fornelle and the ancient Plaium Montis district, places rich in charm and historical heritage.

The experience concludes in a historic cellar, once a shelter for fishermen and now an exclusive venue for conviviality, with a tasting of Italian craft gin paired with traditional Campanian dishes.
