This shop is situated inside the only cheese producing dairy in the Valle di Valtournenche. It is furnished with wooden shelving and typical local objects such as the Beuss, the “grolle”, and friendship cups. Guided tours of the dairy include tasting sessions, and you receive a typical Valle d’Aosta cuisine recipe book, organised with the assistance of the local tourist offices, (Aiat Monte Cervino) and some hotels.
It is part of the “Itinéraires des Fromages” (itinerary of cheeses) circuit.
