The secrets of Hungarian pálinka at the Great Market Hall
Interactive gastronomy programme with Hungarian dinner
Why is our brandy pairing programme unique?
Bring your group to a real Hungaricum gastronomy programme!
This special programme in the Fakanal Restaurant - in the gallery of the legendary Budapest Great Market Hall - offers an unrivalled experience for your groups abroad.
Brandy blending is the art of blending the flavours of fruit spirits. Participants will not only get an insight into the Hungarian brandy culture, but also they also make brandy blended to their own tastewhich you can take home in bottles.
This is not just a programme, a tangible memory of Hungary.
Why will your foreign group like this programme?
A true Hungaricum programme
For foreign tourists, Hungarian pálinka is a local speciality. They are particularly interested in an interactive programme where they can learn about the history of pálinka while tasting it.
Curiosity about the international reputation of brandy
The Hungarian fruit spirit is a big surprise in aroma and taste for those who taste it for the first time. And everyone who visits Hungary wants to taste it one day.
Unique experience programme
The blending session is led by an experienced master blender, who talks in English about flavours, aromas and secrets - informative and entertaining at the same time.
The magic of a unique location
The programme will take place in the upstairs gallery of the Great Market Hall, one of the most famous and beautiful buildings in Budapest - at once cosy, special and easily accessible.
A bottle of Hungarian brandy as a gift
It's not just tasting - everyone makes their own brandy, which they can take home in small bottles with individual labels. A real keepsake, not just a photo.

The programme will end with a home-style Hungarian dinner, offering guests a gastronomic experience.
