Great cheese tour! - Great experience to learn how one of the best cheeses in the world is made, like fine wines you can taste a young to aged cheeses and appreciate how a young cheese is on your pallet to a robust aged cheese, lived it! I would suggest two types of wine with this tasting though as there was one...... be prepared with good shied this is not a sandal type tour.. cheers!

Fantastic - This was a fantastic tour, really a great look at a small operation that still takes great pride in their products. Our guide was really informative and we got to see first hand from the beginning to the finished product.
