    Most is a typical Upper Austrian beverage. Fine-bubbled, refreshing, powerful, and fruity-tart, it not only characterizes the drink menus of local inns but also, thanks to the many fruit trees used for making Most, the landscape and cuisine of the region.

    The region’s biggest and sweetest treat is the Wiesener “strawberry”. The wonderful scent of the sun-ripened fruits and the sparkling Rosalia Frizzante rosé make your mouth water. If it were not a strawberry, you would have to address it like royalty.

    The Aussee char is particularly tasty. A Styrian speciality with a fine, delicate note. The typical light-pink meat of this fish is simply delicious! The wonderful view is a dream! And how about accompanying it with a glass of white wine?
