What if a Hair Spa experience could also be tasted?
At Ferraroni Signature Hair Spa, in the heart of Matera, the ritual dedicated to the hair is not an isolated moment.
It is the beginning of a journey.
A journey in which the body, breath, touch, scent, sound and taste come together in a single sensory experience.
That is why, within our Hair Spa experiences in Matera, we have created a special moment dedicated to tasting.
Not a break.
Not a waiting area.
Another part of the ritual.
Stanza Terra
Where the ritual meets taste
Stanza Terra is the space at Ferraroni Signature dedicated to tasting.
A warm, intimate and relaxing setting where the experience continues through water, botanicals, herbal infusions, wine, chocolate and the flavours of the local territory.
This is where time slows down.
You sit back.
You breathe.
You observe.
You choose.
And then you taste.
Because our idea of a Hair Spa goes beyond hair care. It is a multisensory experience in which every element has a meaning.
Everything begins with water
Before the wine.
Before the herbal infusion.
Before the chocolate.
There is water.
An essential element which, in the Ferraroni Signature philosophy, becomes the first sensory gesture of the experience.
This is why we also offer a selection of aromatic waters, created through the delicate combination of water, fruit, citrus, herbs and botanicals.
Lime and ginger.
Lemon and mint.
Cucumber and mint.
Citrus and rosemary.
Red berries and flowers.
Citrus and floral notes.
Simple, fresh and fragrant combinations that can change with the seasons and according to the experience chosen.
It is not simply flavoured water.
It is the first encounter with taste.
The herbal infusion ritual
Then come the botanicals.
Our herbal infusions are selected by our Tea Sommelier, who carefully researches and selects herbs, botanicals and different aromatic profiles designed to accompany the experience.
Guests can let themselves be guided or take part in the selection, creating their own herbal infusion from a variety of herbs and botanicals.
Before drinking, you observe.
You smell.
You choose.
You prepare.
You wait.
And then you taste.
The herbal infusion is not simply served. It is discovered.
When wine becomes part of the ritual
Within our Wine Experiences, the relationship between ritual and tasting becomes even more distinctive.
Wine becomes part of the hair ritual and later returns to the glass.
The same grape variety.
Two different ways of experiencing it.
Among our selections is Teseo by Tenuta Eleano, an Aglianico del Vulture produced in the territory of Ripacandida.
A wine deeply connected to Basilicata and to the character of the Vulture region.
Wine, therefore, is not simply something to taste.
It becomes part of the story.
And when it moves from the ritual to the glass, the experience creates a continuous connection between matter, fragrance, territory and taste.

A little ingot of pleasure
And then there is chocolate.
Among our selections are the Dolce Lupo chocolate ingots, handcrafted in Basilicata.
Their shape evokes something precious.
A small ingot to break.
To observe.
To smell.
To slowly savour.
The chocolate can be paired with herbal infusions and become the centrepiece of a tasting experience in which pleasure is found not only in the flavour, but also in the gesture.
Because slowing down to taste means becoming more aware of the moment.
The taste of Matera
But there is another essential element.
The territory.
Being in Matera means having the opportunity to tell the story of this land through what it produces.
To accompany some moments of the tasting experience, we select baked goods from Panificio Perrone – Il Forno di Gennaro, a bakery deeply connected to the traditional breadmaking culture of Matera.
Sweet and savoury biscuits, traditional baked goods and local specialities become part of our experience.
These are details that allow a genuine fragment of the territory to enter the Hair Spa.
Because those who come to Matera should not simply see the territory.
They should be able to experience it through all the senses.
Matera is seen.
Matera is explored.
Matera is heard.
Matera is breathed in.
And, somehow, Matera is tasted.
Discover Il Forno di Gennaro – Panificio Perrone
Not simply a tasting. A journey.
Water.
Botanicals.
Herbal infusions.
Wine.
Chocolate.
Biscuits.
Sweet and savoury delicacies.
At first glance, they may seem like simple elements of a tasting.
But at Ferraroni Signature, their meaning is different.
They are not simply what is served.
They are what completes the experience.
Each element enters the ritual with its own sensory purpose.
Water introduces the experience.
Botanicals tell their story.
The herbal infusion accompanies the journey.
Wine connects the ritual with the territory.
Chocolate creates a moment of pleasure.
Traditional baked goods bring Matera to the table.
And everything happens in Stanza Terra.
Time is the most precious ingredient
Perhaps this is the deepest meaning of this space.
Time.
After the ritual, you can sit back.
You can talk.
Or simply remain in silence.
You can choose an aromatic water.
Discover an herbal infusion.
Taste a wine.
Break a chocolate ingot.
Enjoy a traditional biscuit.
And allow the experience to continue.
Without rushing.
Because luxury, sometimes, simply means having the time to savour what you are experiencing.
From hair to taste, through the territory
The Ferraroni Signature philosophy begins with the hair.
But it does not stop there.
Our approach to the Hair Spa is a journey in which the hair becomes the starting point for a much broader experience.
The body becomes involved.
The senses are awakened.
The mind is invited to slow down.
And the territory becomes part of the story.
This is where the meaning of Stanza Terra comes to life.
A bridge between ritual and taste.
Between the individual and the territory.
Between what is experienced and what is remembered.
Every experience has its own flavour
Perhaps, in the end, this is what we want to leave behind.
Not simply beautiful hair.
Not simply a moment of relaxation.
But a memory made of sensations.
A fragrance.
The warmth of water.
A botanical chosen personally.
The taste of an Aglianico del Vulture.
A small chocolate ingot.
The flavour of a traditional biscuit.
And that feeling of finally having slowed down.
Because the most beautiful experiences are not simply the ones we talk about.
They are the ones that stay with us.
