5.00Superb small business in the city center. The staff is very dedicated. Six people work there. Only regional and natural products. The explanations are very detailed. Purchase possible vacuum-sealed. Long shelf life. I recommend this visit. Duration is about 40 to 45 minutes with a tasting.
Do it without hesitation
