What to Expect at a Stop
The tour events are product sampling visits hosted at Citarella locations, where shoppers can try Lioni products. The site describes the tour as a way for the company to thank host venues and customers, and it notes that the tour has inspired future products built on the family's cheesemaking tradition.
If you plan around a visit, the products featured on the homepage give a sense of what the brand is sampling:
- Sliced Fresh Mozzarella — pre-cut into 21 vacuum-packed slices, made with 100% whole cow's milk and no added hormones, artificial flavor, or coloring.
- Vacuum-Packed 8 oz. Piece — the original hand-wrapped fresh mozzarella in a vacuum-sealed format that stays fresh until opened (before expiration).
- Vacuum-Packed 1-lb. Log — a larger format for shredding, melting, dicing for bruschetta, or slicing for Caprese salad.
- Vacuum-Packed 1-lb. Sliced Log — the 1-lb. log pre-cut into 21 slices and vacuum sealed.
Practical Notes
- Timing: The October 5 NYC stops are spaced roughly 1.5–3 hours apart, so attending more than one in a day is possible but tight given travel between the Upper West Side, Upper East Side, and West Village.
- Confirm before traveling: The schedule above is what the site lists; store-level changes aren't reflected there, so calling the Citarella location ahead is a reasonable check.
- After the tour: The site says more product news is coming from Lioni, but no post-tour event dates are listed.
