Slurp! The mountain cheese
An authentic journey through the world of milk, from the very first drop to the final tasting, to reconnect with ancient gestures and timeless traditions
Where time moves slowly and the air smells of hay, there is a world waiting to be discovered with all your senses. In the mountain dairy, every gesture carries the flavour of simplicity: you follow the rhythms of nature, listen to the sounds of the farm, and learn by observing and doing. In this immersive experience, Mrs Lucia welcomes you for a day in the life of a true dairywoman and farmer. It begins with caring for the animals - brushing the cows and collecting fresh eggs from the henhouse - then continues with milking and transforming the fresh milk. The cheese takes shape under curious hands and amazed eyes, while golden fritters cook slowly, filling the air with the comforting aromas of home. It’s an invitation to experience the mountains with calm and authenticity, rediscovering the simple gestures that speak of deep bonds with the land, genuine flavours, and the joy of sharing.
