Guided tour

The tour is conducted in Spanish; if you speak another language, we will provide you with a free audio guide when booking the guided tour.

Come and discover the magic of Mahón-Menorca Cheese on our family guided tour, ideal for children and curious adults alike. A fantastic tour through the different facilities of our cheese factory to discover the entire production process of the best artisan cheese in Menorca.

To start, we will give you a brief introduction to share the most important facts about the estate. Next, we will head to our cheese factory, where we will explain the entire production process while our master cheesemakers give you a live demonstration (guided tours are the only way to see this demonstration firsthand).

We will also meet our main stars: the cows, which you can find either in the cowshed or out in the fields, as they are free to go out and graze whenever they like. Next to the cowshed is the milking parlor, where milking takes place twice a day: at 6:00 AM and 6:00 PM, meaning that witnessing the milking is only possible during the afternoon tour.

But it won't be all listening; it's time to bottle-feed one of the calves and meet the rest of the animals on the Subaida estate—especially the little goats, which we will feed inside their enclosure. From there, we will go up to the threshing floor (la era), where you can enjoy a panoramic view of our facilities and the surrounding nature. We will tell you a bit about the history of the estate and the Montañés family, and then head down to our small aging/demonstration room to learn about the process the cheeses undergo from the factory to the consumer.

And since the walk will have worked up an appetite, it's time to try our products! The tasting will take place standing up in the room adjacent to the shop.
