Overview

In the House of Cheese we try to let you know the importance of the Majorera Goat has for Fuerteventura and its people.
How is it possible that such a special animal has been able to overcome all the possible adversities with respect to the desert climate of our island, passing feeding difficulties in the history of the years, and not being able to sustain our ancestors majoreros, with their milk or meat, but has been and is able to provide us with a milk of such high quality, which has made Fuerteventura goat cheeses in the best in the world.

Inclusions

  • Welcoming Coffee
  • Coffee and/or Tea - Authentic Fuerteventura Breakfast, bowl of freshly milked goat's milk with Gofio
  • Breakfast - Large breakfast with fresh cheese sandwich + cheese board + Canarian Mojos and jams + Soft Drinks/wine
  • 1 KG of you own cheese from the press, vacuum pack it and label it by yourselves
  • Produce an authentic Fuerteventura cheese
  • Visit the farm + Goat
  • Material (work covers, tights, gloves, ...)

What to expect

You will have the experience of making an authentic Fuerteventura cheese with your own hands from the milking. You will know how it is, how it lives, how it feeds, ... the Majorera goat: the best goat in the world for desert climate and the real protagonist in this experience. Upon arrival at our farm, you will be welcomed with a cup of coffee while we explain the experience. Once here we proceed to teach you the milking techniques both manually and with the milking machine.
In the middle of the work we give you an Authentic Fuerteventura Breakfast.
Each visitor will individually elaborate their own cheese. When you have finished making the cheese, we leave it in the "press" to take firmness and we go to our patio of plants, where you will receive a large breakfast containing fresh cheese sandwich, cheese board, accompanied by Canarian Mojos and jams, plus water and other consumption to choose (Coffee, Tea, Tenerife Wine, Beer, Soft Drinks, ...).
Once you have finished having breakfast and rested from the experience, you will go back to the Elaboration room and take your own cheese from the press, vacuum pack it and label it by yourselves, ending the experience.

Absolutely brilliant experience. It’s fascinating being involved with the full process from milking the goats to making the cheese. Respect to those animals and the people who work with them. Definitely worth doing!
