Grandma's Cellar - The Flavor of Transylvania

Ladislau Ciocan
•September 30, 2014

The Beautiful Landscape of Medieval Europe

The beautiful landscape denotes the remarkable survival of Medieval Europe - a mosaic of ancient forests, meadows, and pastures rich in wildflowers, along with ancient villages featuring fortified Saxon churches. Traditional agricultural methods are in harmony with nature and the wild flora.

Pivnita Bunicii Products

In Saschiz, the folks at Pivnita Bunicii share with us about their products:

Jams

Our jams are excellent on bread or with pancakes, but you can also use them as a topping for desserts, for example with ice cream or yogurt. Some of them are also very good used as a sauce in combination with meat dishes or alongside cheese.

Juices

Our juices can be diluted in water but are delicious when combined with sparkling white wines or vodka.

Honey

Our honey is collected from the meadows and pastures rich in wildflowers and symbolizes the biodiversity of this remarkable area. We buy honey from a single beekeeper, the best in the region, which is then bottled at our facility in Saschiz.

Traditional Recipes and Ingredients

Local ingredients are combined with traditional recipes, small batches, and slow cooking to ensure that our products are full of flavor just like Grandma used to make.
