Cheese Factory Tour & Tasting

Calling all cheese lovers! Come on a guided tour of the Doña Francisca cheese factory to discover the production processes of artisanal cheeses and try them yourself!

Cheese Factory Tour & Tasting

We'll meet at 11 am at the main entrance to the Doña Francisca cheese factory, where we will begin our tour focused on the production processes. We will explore the milk rooms as well as the maturation and shipping areas.

The Doña Francisca factory produces artisanal cheeses like the Torta del Casa, which has the DOP (Protected Designation of Origin) stamp. We will learn about the origin of this delicacy, a symbol of the province of Caceres. The Torta "Virgen del Prado", recognized as the third-best cheese in the world, is also produced here.

After the tour, we will proceed to the tasting room to taste 10 different kinds of cheese. Participants will learn to distinguish various tastes, aromas, and textures. The cheese tasting will be accompanied by a glass of wine from the region or mineral water, depending on your preference.

The activity will conclude at 12:30 pm.
