Class
About this activity
Follow your guide through the fertile fields of the Horta Nord region of Valencia, where tiger nut — one of the key ingredients of horchata — is sown and cultivated. Along the way, learn of the nut’s role in the production of horchata and gain insight into the flavors it helps create.
Visit a drying building nestled among the crop fields and see the machinery used at harvesting time. Here, listen as your guide sheds light on the technologies used in harvesting through the generations.
Afterward, step inside a horchata workshop, roll up your sleeves, and set to work making the traditional beverage from scratch. As you work, learn what it takes to turn this humble nut into one of Valencia’s most popular summer drinks.
Finish your tour with a tasting session and enjoy sweeping views over the crops lining the hillsides.
