Top 10 Food & Drink in Koper, Slovenian Littoral Region
Koper (Slovene pronunciation: [ˈkoːpəɾ] ( listen)) (Italian: Capodistria) is a city in southwestern Slovenia, with the other Slovenian coastal towns Ankaran, Izola, Piran, and Portorož, situated along the country's 47-kilometre (29-mile) coastline, in the Istrian Region, approximately five kilometres (3.1 miles) from its border with Italy. Having a unique ecology and biodiversity, it is considered an important national natural resource. The city's Port of Koper is the major contributor to the economy of the eponymous city municipality. With only one percent of Slovenia having a coastline, the influence that the Port of Koper also has on tourism was a factor in Ankaran deciding to leave the municipality in a referendum in 2011 to establish its own. The city is a destination on a number of Mediterranean cruising lines. In 2016, the city expects 65 cruise ship arrivals (for example: Norwegian Spirit, MSC Magnifica, Norwegian Jade, MS Rhapsody of the Seas...) with the season spanning from March to December. Koper is the main urban centre of the Slovenian Istria, with a population of about 25,000.

We stumbled across this lovely bar while walking the streets of Koper. During the wine tasting (excellent wines!) we also tried istrian tapas, which were delicious. The service was very nice and we learned a lot about local wines and olive oils. Must see when in Koper!

* WINE BOUTIQUE & ISTRIAN SHOP * WINE CELLAR * TASTING EXPERIENCE * RESTAURANT & WINE BAR Visit us... Get to the bottom of Istrian stories! The nobility and lavishness of our wine varieties can be attributed to the heritage of a thousand-year old tradition of oenology and viticulture in Slovenian Istria, and are the product of the exquisite natural characteristics of the Istrian soil, and hard-working hands of locals. In Vinakoper, we have been producing top-quality wines with love and respect since 1947. Istria has its own charm, its atmosphere and is characterized with numerous beauties which have all been excellently captured in the harmony of colour, taste and aroma of Vinakoper wines.

My name is Sara and I am an experienced truffle hunter. I have been truffle hunting with my father since I was a child and I always loved it. I want to share my truffle knowledge with others and this is why I started doing Truffle hunting demonstrations (with meal, based on truffles). I can honestly say that I love my job. In case you decide to join my Truffle hunting tour, I can assure you that you will not regret it – especially after meeting my lovely dog.
