    Get the Premier tour! Worth every forint! --if their legacy and family resilience video doesn't make you a devotee, the tasting journey will. And if neither win your heart, you may not have one ;) but truly it is a beautiful, delicious experience! I have used Unicum for cheers-ing special events and digestion for years and this tour was informative and wonderful.

  • Tamás Pepó

    We went to the premium tour which consisted of a movie about the Zwack family, a guided walk around in the factory, details on the spices used, and the necessary Unicum tryout during the cellar tour. People are highly engaged and we felt perfect during the visit. Highly recommended!
