Abondance

Description

Set off on a sensory discovery in 9 stages through landscapes, techniques and senses.
Here, time is no longer cut into fragments, it unfolds into riches. Open your eyes wide, listen, smell, breathe, from the pastures to the sweat of the gestures, from the freshness of the valleys to the warm smell of milk coming out of the udder, from the aromas of rennet to the smells of maturing...
Be attentive, everything is offered to those who know how to receive, and here you will get the best: the taste of the world.

What kind of taster are you?
A cheese is a story of taste, but not only!
Tasting a cheese calls upon all our senses... we look at it, smell it, touch it, eat it, and even more surprisingly, we listen to it.
From the tasting table, your senses will be awakened to appreciate all the subtleties of Abondance cheese!

The store
At the end of your visit, we suggest you discover all the richness of our land with many products: Savoy cheeses, sausages, jams, honey, sweets, books and souvenirs...

Abondance cheese will no longer hold any secrets for you.
Product store and family activities. Guided tours on Thursdays, February 9, 16, 23 and March 2, 2023 at 5:30 pm. Prior reservation required.
