What a great experience. Kevin was amazing. We were late by almost an hour and he waited for us even if was a little bit late. He did a great tour showing us all the process for Comté.

Thanks to our english speaking guide Kevin, we learned so much and had a wonderful time! A must-do if you're interested in French cheese and culture or if you're looking for an experience out of the ordinary.

A fascinating visit to the 'cathedral of cheese' - caves of Comte. Great tour with English written guide (tour is in French but don't let that put you off!) - they make you feel very included and check you understand! Lesson on how to taste the cheese and tasting also included for €8 pp - not to be missed for fans of Comte.

Amazing amount of Comte cheese stored in an old fort. Informative your including cheese tasting. Avoid using Google Maps to get here - it'll take you on unpaved forest roads that end in a meadow (see photo). Instead navigate to the town of St. Antoine and follow the signs.

Very pleasant visit. We felt the young man's passion for his profession but also the respect for the history of the place during this visit. Very nice little tasting, many things learned and I still have the smell of ammonia in my nostrils 🤣 Thanks again and we're going to enjoy it.

Less known than Fort des Rousses, but we enjoyed this visit by an employee who shared his passion with us. For people sensitive to smell, bring a nose mask 😉. An informative tasting at the end almost forces us to buy Comté because it is so delicious. …
