A key event highlighting vermouth culture
Casa Navàs has hosted the Premis Vinari 2026, one of the most important events dedicated to Catalan vermouth. This annual gathering brings together producers, experts and professionals from across the region to recognize the best vermouths and celebrate a deeply rooted tradition.
Hosting the awards in Casa Navàs is particularly meaningful. Located in Reus, a city historically linked to vermouth production, the building represents the perfect meeting point between heritage, gastronomy and local identity. Modernist architecture and vermouth culture share a common thread: both are expressions of the territory and its history.
Recognizing excellence in vermouth production
The Premis Vinari stand out for their rigorous evaluation process. A panel of experts conducts blind tastings, assessing each vermouth based on balance, aroma, complexity and character.
The 2026 edition confirms the strength of Catalonia as a leading region in vermouth production. Established brands coexist with emerging producers, creating a dynamic and diverse landscape that blends tradition with innovation.
This diversity reflects the vitality of the sector and its ability to evolve while preserving its roots.
Heritage and gastronomy combined
Hosting the event at Casa Navàs reinforces the connection between architectural heritage and gastronomy. Both elements are essential to understanding the cultural identity of Reus.
Vermouth is not just a drink; it is a social ritual, a shared tradition and a cultural expression. Experiencing it within a historic building adds depth and meaning to the event.
Casa Navàs as a living cultural space
Events like the Premis Vinari position Casa Navàs as a living space where history meets contemporary culture. Beyond its architectural value, it serves as a platform for initiatives that promote creativity, talent and local heritage.
