Day 1: LINDT FACTORY STORE, PORETTI BREWERY, GLIDING FLIGHT

Gathering of the participants in Varese and transfer to the Lind Factory Store. Meeting with an expert guide, the Maitre Chocolatier, who will reveal interesting information on the history and production of the beloved cocoa-based delicacy. In addition, participants have the opportunity to take a look at the automated experimental systems and, at the end, to taste at will. Later transfer to the Angelo Poretti Brewery and meeting with the guide inside the building. It represents one of the rare examples of Liberty industrial construction. Built across the Olona River in the 1880s, the factory began production in 1887. Of particular value is the old cooking room, now used as a reception room. Lunch in a restaurant / liberty villa.
