Exceptional Cheese Tasting

Ana267, Feb 2025

Our experience was very nice. Jonas is very knowledgeable and had a very good cheese selection for our tasting. His energy is calm, and very welcoming ensuring you learn something new on this tasting. We loved the most because he gave us an amazing knowledge how to shop a good cheese in the store and what to look out for. When in Basel, I highly recommend doing this tour.

Excellent. Very friendly and knowledgeable host in a relaxed and intimate setting made this a unique experience with a good variety of cheeses to taste.

Fantastic family bussiness

Ania M, Jan 2025

Fantastic experience. Great selection of unique and original cheeses from local farmers. We loved the stories behind each of them. We were able to purchase our favourite cheese as shop provided vacuum packing that allow us to travel with them.

Interesting tasting of cheese

robertdY8424AU, Dec 2024

We were able to taste a variety of very good cheeses and previously unknown cheeses (e.g. herbal cheese), from which we also bought something afterwards. A lot of background knowledge about cheese production was also provided.
