    One Beer Later

    Brewer of craft beers and sodas, Buzău

    “We opened the One Beer Later brewery in 2017 in a bid to produce and enjoy excellent local, craft beers. We use barley malt that is malted in Buzău, just down the road from where we brew. We like our feisty craft beers unpasteurized, unfiltered and additive-free. That’s why our production methods combine the best in traditional and modern techniques. Since 2021, we’ve also been bringing to market craft sodas with plant extracts, such as our Magma Cola and spruce tonic water.”

    The small team mainly sells to cafes and restaurants around Bucharest and Buzău, but also in Buzău Land. Their tasty beer that is aged in rum, cognac and brandy barrels for flavour, has quickly became the official beer of Buzău Land. You can always order the craft beer and sodas online on the brewery’s website. If you're interested in visiting the brewery, just give them a call and they’d be delighted to set up a visit.

    Rafinețuri

    Handmade treats from Grigorescu Manor, Berca

    “Rafinețuri are handmade food products, for which we only use fruits and plants that we gather from the nearby forests, orchards or from our own garden. Everything is prepared at Grigorescu Manor, in Buzău Land, using traditional techniques, without any additives. Instead, we add a large portion of refinement.”

    The Rafinețuri products conserve the culinary heritage of Buzău, the food recipes being reinvented at one of the most beautiful manors in the region. Among the treats, you can find: zacuscă with truffles, quince confit, elderberry jam with Fetească Neagră wine, strawberry and ginger jam, honey with truffles, apricot and rosemary jam, paprika jam, quince jam with sweet-scented geranium, or sour-cherry jam with Tonka.

    If you’re looking for a gift or souvenir, you can choose the Rafinețuri Wooden Box, which comes with a hand-painted clay spoon. In the box, you can combine whichever products you like.

    Dor de lână

    Rodica Pătrașcu, Gura Teghii

    “Fascinated by art and nature, I have always loved to work on different handcraft projects. Now I’ve moved into the heart of nature and wherever I go, I find wool and sheepskins that people, unfortunately, throw away. That’s why I started to learn the secret of tanning and wool preparation, and so I discovered the longing of touching wool. It’s such a valuable material”.

    Rodica felts a lot of different objects, from phone cases, to jewelry, bags, soaps dressed in wool, and many more. As she herself tells us, “the source of ideas is flowing.”

    Primitiv Foods

    Pătârlagele

    “Primitiv Foods is a brand that started from the idea of eating healthy and from the desire to promote local products made on Buzău Valley. We use our honey just as nature gives it to us: raw, pure and untreated thermally or chemically. And to fit all these qualities into one word, we call it pure honey. We wanted to complement the aroma of natural, fair honey with an additional touch of tasty and healthy. That's how we came to create a variety of mixes made from simple ingredients, with unique taste and texture. All our products are mixed cold, so they retain all the healthy qualities of honey, dried fruit and nuts.”

    Being small producers, Primitiv Foods are among those few entrepreneurs who can still bring to our tables healthy, good quality food, prepared without compromise. You can order their products online, directly from their website. Try out their mix of honey with nuts, gooseberries, hazelnuts and carobs, chokeberry, sea buckthorn and pollen, or pistachios.

    And as the Primitiv Foods motto says: “Spread the sweetness!”
