Virtual tour and pleasantly fragrant - We discovered as a family the only ham dryer in Bayonne a discovery on the whole procedure of the life of the ham from the arrival of the meat until its sale in the adjoining shop with a tasting at the end of the visit you will have all the fragrance of the ham from your arrival

Discovery manufacture of ham - Top animator knows his subject and gives full explanation it is missing maybe a short video to show where the pigs come from...

Paid visit is a shame - Mixed review because I found the visit good but the Award still seems a bit high knowing that we necessarily leave the workshop with purchases! (Except for the force of nature that manages to spend 45 minutes bathed in a delicious smell of ham and sausage then to leave the store without buying anything ...). Otherwise it was interesting and the products we bought were good.

Content to be improved - The visit could be interesting if it were not so simplistic. The explanations were relatively superficial, so a little disappointment on that side.
