    • For over 30 years now, Pierre has been welcoming you to discover his workshop and his craft. This guided tour lasts approximately 45 minutes, including tasting.

      You will learn all about the secrets of preparing ham, from raising the pigs to curing the pieces for many months.

      You'll walk through the curing room with its 800 hanging hams, and the salting room and drying room will be presented in detail. You'll finish with a tasting of the house's signature products.

      The products are on sale directly at the workshop store or on the website.


      Guided tours cost €5 per person and €2.50 for children aged 8 to 14 inclusive (free for children under 8).

    J'ai offert la visite à mon compagnon pour son anniversaire. Il été comme un enfant dans une confiseries. Les papilles en émoi et aux aguets à chaque instant. Carole connait son sujet, et elle nous explique tout le procèsus de façon claire et précise. Les produits sont d'une finesse, je vous recommande cette visite sans hésiter, même pour les gens du coin. Nous sommes de Kanbo et reviendrons avec plaisir.. Milesker 🙏
