NEWS RELEASE: PREMIER CULINARY EXPERIENCE
Marque IV is proud to announce its participation in Tasmania's first ever hands-on culinary experience; the Tasmanian Culinary Weekend. Presented by multi-award-winning Premier Travel Tasmania, this innovative new package skilfully melds together a collection of Tasmania's finest heritage accommodation, food producers, restaurants, cafes and wineries.
A number of unique relationships have led to the formation of the Tasmanian Culinary Weekend, which brings together Islington Hotel, the Agrarian Kitchen, the Lark Distillery, Grandvewe Cheesery and the Farm Gate Cafe, together with Marque IV. Comprising 3 days and 2 nights in Hobart and its surrounds, the weekend combines iconic hospitality, exclusive culinary insights and artisan produce to treat interstate visitors to an indulgent winter escape.
Tasmanian Culinary Weekend participants will experience the seven-course signature tasting menu at our world-acclaimed restaurant. Throughout the weekend, guests will enjoy award-winning five-star boutique accommodation at the beautiful Islington Hotel and join Australian Gourmet Traveller's editor Rodney Dunn at his much talked-about Agrarian Kitchen for a day of culinary exploration, taking part in the preparation of a sumptuous feast using produce sourced from his market garden. At the prize-winning Lark Distillery, guests will gain exclusive insight into whisky making and its history, enjoying comprehensive tastings and a lunch of Tasmanian ocean trout and traditional Scottish haggis, followed by a visit to Meadowbank Winery to view Tom Samek's art installations and enjoy coffee and dessert. Further, participants will visit Grandvewe Cheesery for a rich sensory experience, exploring the palate flavours of a range of cheeses and discovering the art of matching wines and cheeses. At Kettering's Farm Gate Cafe, guests will gain distinctive insight during sausage-making classes led by Lee Christmas, in which they will prepare their own string of gourmet sausages to take home.
Launching on June 26 this year, the Tasmanian Culinary Weekend is priced from $1600 per person and can be booked for a minimum of 4 people and a maximum of 8. Commencing on Friday morning and concluding on Sunday evening, the package offers three full days packed with culinary delights and allows Australian guests to discover the quality and innovation for which the island state is rapidly becoming internationally renowned.
