Margaret - United Kingdom
Wandering through the old silver mine turned aging cellar gave me goosebumps, and the Gorgonzola tasting afterward was pure heaven.
Lukas - Germany
Five generations of cheese passion really shows, especially when paired with that lovely local wine and fresh breadsticks at the end.
Isabella - Brazil
Learning how Parmigiano and alpine Tome are made right next to Lake Maggiore made this the most memorable food tour of our trip.
