Cultural, gastronomic and sensory tourism at the Chillón Cheese Museum
Tour the museum, enjoy the tasting room and purchase Chillón products.
A tour for the whole family, educational and fun, where you can also taste 8 types of sheep's cheese and D.O. wine. Bull.
Museographic discourse consists of two deeply linked aspects. That is why in the itinerary the visitor will be able to learn about the cheese-making processes, originally focused on the three main stages of the product: from when “it is” milk, through the subsequent transformation into curd and the natural production of the cheese.
And also, at different points in the exhibition, you will be able to learn about the Chillón family history from their origins as cheesemakers at the end of the 19th century to the present day.
A chronological walk through the intimacy of this family of entrepreneurs and their star product, cheese.
Groups of more than 10 people will be able to enjoy a guided tour of the museum facilities, contemplate a recreation of a day of past times in images and finish with a tasting of all our cheeses.
And if you are not going in a group, enjoy an intimate gastronomic-cultural experience with your family, friends or partner. Free tour of the museum, video of a work day from the last century and tasting of different varieties of cheese.
