FOOD AND WINE TASTINGS

Deep dive into the sumptuous food and drink of Barcelona
 

Barcelona isn’t just a city; it’s a feast for the senses, and our tasting experiences are designed to bring the best of Spanish and Catalan culinary traditions directly to your palate. Whether you're a wine enthusiast, an olive oil aficionado, or simply curious about Spain’s most iconic ingredients, our intimate tastings offer an unforgettable way to deepen your appreciation of this vibrant food culture.

Our tastings are short, focused, and deeply enjoyable deep-dives into the world of Spanish gastronomy. They take place in carefully chosen, authentic venues that allow you to savour the experience in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. With small group sizes (no crowds here!) and expert guides, you’ll not only taste the difference but also gain insight into the stories, techniques, and traditions that make these foods and drinks so exceptional.

Join us to discover the heart of Spanish flavours, learn new skills, and create lasting memories—one bite or sip at a time.  Each experience prioritises the highest quality local products, showcasing the craftsmanship and heritage behind them.

Things to look forward to in our tasting events...

Find your delicious tasting experience

We have tastings running most days of the week! Choose between our Premium Olive Oil Tasting, a 75-minute sensory journey exploring Spain’s “liquid gold,” or our Southern Spanish Wine Tasting, a 90-minute exploration of the wines and flavours of Jerez.

Both tastings are designed to fit perfectly into your Barcelona itinerary, whether as an engaging aperitivo before dinner, a stand-alone activity, or the perfect lead-in to one of our acclaimed food tours.

What a great time! What a great time. Marc was wonderful and also very informative of the history of Barcelona and the buildings we walked past. What a great tour guide! Food and drinks amazing. Wish we did it at the beginning of our trip! Saw parts of the town we hadn't been in.

Wonderful Tapas Tour Good company, good food, and interesting conversations with Esther. She was a great companion for the tour of the Gotic area - we immediately connected with her and it felt like a reunion with a family member as we went from restaurant to restaurant. The food was very good as well and we learned about some of the traditional tapas selections.

Hang out with a local for the night! We enjoyed our evening tapas tour in the Gothic Quarter with our host Marc! He was incredibly knowledgable about the city's history, hot spots, and cuisine and it was fun to hang out with a local for the night! Highly recommend booking this tour early in your trip to get grounded in the city and be able to take advantage of some great recommendations for the rest of your time in Barcelona!

Fantastic Gothic Tapas tour! Well worth the time and money! Highly recommend doing the tour on the front end of your time in Barcelona. It gives you a good feel for the neighborhood and what to order and we thought it a great value for 3 different restaurants, professional guided tour and local history, plus they keep the tour size to around 6 or 7 so it is intimate. Try everything! We will definitely go back and do other tours with this company when we return to Barcelona!

Culinary experiences with a small group. So fun! Esther did an absolutely fantastic job. By the end of the evening the whole group felt like family and her restaurant choices and information were spot on. Highly recommend.

The Barcelona Taste: because it's delicious

Barcelona is a major tourist destination – the number of guidebooks and websites devoted to the city is overwhelming! Which is why we started The Barcelona Taste ... to save you time so you can experience the best food Barcelona has to offer while side-stepping the crowds. 

We take you to small, local businesses offering delicious, top quality food restaurants on our scrumptious tours – because they’re great. We visit, we taste and then we visit again and taste again. Ad infinitum! That’s our research.

We don’t take a “pile ‘em high” approach with our guests. Our focus is on providing the best possible quality in everything we do. This includes limiting our tours to very small numbers, to give personal attention and feed everyone well.
