Arctic Culinary Experience

Embark on a journey of flavors as we visit passionate local producers who bring the taste of Northern Norway to life. Immerse yourself in rich aromas, delightful textures, and the inspiring stories behind each creation. Every producer pours their heart and soul into transforming local ingredients into exceptional delicacies.

Your adventure begins at Harstad Brewery, where the brewmaster himself shares how his unique beers come to life — followed by a tasting that lets you savor the result. Each beer will be accompanied by traditional cured meats and crispbread from Refsnes Matglede.

Next, you’ll visit the nearby Olaåsen Gård to sample traditional Norwegian cured mutton inside a cozy lavvo tent. In winter, this is the perfect spot to gaze at the dancing Northern Lights — if you’re lucky, nature might treat you to a show.

The evening concludes at Røkenes Gård, where you’ll enjoy a lovingly prepared dinner with a main dish and dessert — a perfect finale to this unforgettable culinary experience.
