From the curdling into the typical copper heaters to the salting and the final ageing in the so-called wheel cathedrals, you will be a privileged witness of almost all the steps of production of this out-and-out food icon. Tasting at the end.
You will join a shared tour made by the staff of the dairy. The producer can be max 30km far from the city center.
