Gran Canaria · CHEESE
5 tours
Good cheese tastings fill up fast in the southern resorts, and the best ones fill up first. The 5 below carry current prices and enough detail to pick between them without opening ten tabs.
Taste four Canary wine styles and four artisan cheeses at Bodegas Monje in El Sauzal, Tenerife. Family vineyards, volcanic flavors, great value.
“really nice experience. it was interesting learning about canary wines, they spoke very well and the tasting was delicious! would recommend”
Majorero goat cheese workshop on a Fuerteventura farm, with a Canarian breakfast and a vacuum-packed cheese you label and take home.

A 2.5-hour Gran Canaria tasting at Valle de Mogán, with Canarian rum explained by a sommelier and paired with local cheese.
“Excelent! We enjoyed a lot! Thanks to our guide Katerina and to the staff of the Valle de Mogan Restaurant!”
Make goat cheese in Aguïmes at La Jaira de Ana. Hands-on workshop, farm visit, and take-home cheese. 3 hours, about $30.
“The cheese making, our guide was very nice, the only thing was communication was a bit difficult as it was in Spanish, the English translation on the cell phone was not so easy to understand!”
One hour in Mogán tasting three Spanish wines and local Canarian cheese in a two-century-old cellar.
“It was amazing Tasting tour with canarian cheeses and the spanish wines. The experience takes place near the old canarian building which is really beautiful! Our guide Katerina explained about the place and about the canarian family who has the property and the Fine dining restaurant near. We liked the time spending there a lot. Very yummy, tasty and very useful information about the local cheese and wine. Thanks!!!”
