GLIKO TASTING IN A LOCAL FAMILY INSIDE BERAT CASTLE by 1001 Albanian Adventures
Tirana, Albania
Dollani house is a traditional one in the neighborhood Kala, declared a cultural monument in 1965 for the architectural and decorative values that it carries.
In this house, tourism has been present since communism, of course surveyed, where visitors tasted liqueurs, glikos, coffee and raki- an Albanian type of brandy.
The visit to the house lasts around 45-60 minutes. Visitors firstly have a seat in the main room, where one of the owners explains the history of the building and how life was organized back those days. Afterwards, we go on a short tour around the house, to then reach the tasting environment, for some delicious local homemade products
We start with a glass of raki, to follow with the famous gliko, depending on the period of the visit (cherry, watermelon, plum, orange etj). Afterwards we will taste ‘suxhuk’, a kind of oriental dessert, still very traditional in Berat from the ottoman era. The tasting service will conclude in a coffee making and drinking process.
