National Khachapuri Day is observed in Georgia every February 27, celebrating khachapuri, a traditional Georgian pastry recognized as a symbol of the country's culinary culture. Established by the Gastronomic Association of Georgia, this day highlights the importance of khachapuri, which was added to the Registry of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Georgia in 2019. Khachapuri, meaning "bread with cheese," is typically made with dough containing matsoni and filled with Imeretian cheese, although various regional varieties exist, such as Adjarian, Megrelian, and Gurian khachapuri. Each type has distinct characteristics, with Adjarian khachapuri being particularly popular outside Georgia for its boat shape filled with cheese, butter, and egg. The day aims to promote Georgian cuisine and enhance culinary tourism in Georgia, reflecting the dish's significance in the nation's food culture.
