We stopped in a local bar and ate wonderful food followed by delicious coffee. When we were ready to leave the waitress gave us a local spirit to prepare us for a cold weather waiting for us outside. After first sip we fell absolutely in love! It had a unique aroma that we never tasted before. We asked: “Where did you get such an exquisite drink?!”. This is how we came around to visiting a small d
istillery in the middle of the mountains close by. It was the most modern distiller in this part of Europe! However, this did not stop them from following hundreds of years old traditions and recipes. Obviously, our visit could end without a tasting session! We always wanted to work for ourselves, we just didn’t know what we wanted to do. After this trip we finally found an idea for our venture! We ordered first 3 boxes of the whiskey we tasted back in Slovakia, and we organized a few tasting sessions to see what potential clients thought. They couldn’t experience the scenery we did but they all still loved it! This is how the story of Gargara’s success begins…
