Visit this traditional cheese factory between Ciudadela and Cala Macarella
Visit our farm, enjoy the true Menorca countryside and taste the delicious cheese we produce. Our specialty is the traditional production of Mahon-Menorca Cheese with denomination of Origin, whose production techniques are centuries old (although today technology helps us a little;)
This cheese has the natural flavor of our Island, declared a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO, so the care and good treatment of animals and nature at all levels are combined to produce a top quality cheese.
When you visit Son Piris, our farm, you will be able to meet our cows first-hand, see where we make and cure our cheese, and even taste it while observing the fields of south Ciutadella. And if you like what you tried and you want to take a piece of cheese for your family or friends, we will be happy to pack it for the trip.
