"Osmiza " means eight in Slovenian and indicates the days that Empress Maria Theresa of Austria had allowed farms in the province of Trieste to open their houses to sell the surplus of what they produced. Its institution dates back to the time of Charles the Great, the custom took root with the decree of Joseph II of Habsburg in 1784.Everything is home-grown, and they consume directly on the "farms " of the farmers, wine, eggs,ham, salami,cheese,in oil,sometimes sweets of their own production. You will be welcomed into rustic surroundings, set up with simple wooden benches and tables surrounded by green vineyards. Entering an osmiza is a unique experience, a plunge into the past, where you can taste in company and in a festive air the products of the territory.

Cesarine - Tour of \"OSMIZE\" typical locales in and around Trieste
- Giovanni and his lovely wife were extremely hospitable and friendly. Our conversation was a bit challenging but we understand each other for the most part and it was all part of the fun. The food preparation and cooking was well organised and each step well explained. I particularly enjoyed the homemade red wine and the homemade Limoncello was amazing. I'm glad I attended. Thank you so much ☺️☕🍷
