Explore the Subaida cheese factory in Menorca and learn about Mahon cheese, a popular regional product, including a tasting opportunity.

Description

At the agreed time, we'll meet outside of the Subaida cheese factory, known for the production of Mahon cheese.

We will first tour the farm facilities to see where the animals are kept and typical tasks are performed. Next, we'll visit the milking room, where we may assist with the milking process. We will then go through the steps involved in cheese production and the maturing process.

Following this, we will head to the milking parlor to observe the milking process and learn about the cheese-making and ripening durations.

The experience will culminate in a tasting of three varieties of Mahon cheese, sobrasada, salchichon, and almond sweets alongside bread, wine, and water.

The tour will last for 1.5 hours, concluding our exploration of Mahon cheese.
