The Timeless Allure of Georgian Cuisine
Georgia, at the crossroads of Europe and Asia, is a culinary secret kept by those who crave authenticity. Kakheti’s vineyards yield qvevri wines, fermented in clay buried beneath the earth. In Tbilisi, family-run taverns serve pkhali and lobio with warmth that lingers. Svaneti’s mountain herbs infuse rustic kubdari breads. This is a land where food is a ritual, savored slowly over toasts and tales. K&S Escapes, backed by Internova’s global network, elevates your experience with exclusive access: private supra feasts in Telavi, chef-led khinkali workshops in Tbilisi, or a spice-blending session in Svaneti. Your adventure is enriched by our branded travel journal, embossed with the K&S Escapes logo, capturing your gastronomic musings in style.
