Cheese House

To have a complete cheese experience, try and learn about the quintessential artisan product of Santa María de Guía, visit the Casa del Queso in the Montaña Alta estate, where an important part of the production is concentrated. Located in a rural environment from where you can see the pasture areas and on the slopes of El Pico de Montaña Alta, at the top of which there is a viewpoint with 360º views of the four cardinal points, the visit offers us to soak up, in addition to the aromas and flavours of cheese, the history and tradition of this unique product with a protected designation and its characteristics, as well as the entire ethnographic component that revolves around its production. Here you can also feel like a cheesemaker for a while, participating in one of the production workshops that are offered; or professional taster, after having tasted the different varieties of cheese from the area that can be found here, and take a little piece of this gastronomic jewel carved out of centuries of tradition.
