Organic cheese tasting in Vernole
Forty minutes among the farm's cheeses, told by someone who knows them.
What you do
A cheese makes more sense when someone tells you about it while you taste. On this masseria a cheese storyteller does just that, leading you through the organic cheeses made on the farm.
You taste, you listen, you ask questions. In forty minutes you come away knowing much more about what is on your plate and how it is made.
At the end there is the farm shop, if you want to take your favourites home.
By bike
It runs Monday to Saturday from 9:30am to 1pm, and in summer also from 5pm to 7pm. The morning slot is an ideal mid-ride stop: lock the bike with the lock we provide, taste, and carry on with your self-guided route, GPX and roadbook.
The tasting pairs with the walking visit of the same masseria, among animals, olive groves and a Lecce stone quarry. Cheese lovers can add the pampanella workshop too. Tell me what tempts you and I will put it in the quote.
