3. This tasting experience introduces two of Switzerland’s most famous culinary traditions. Swiss cheese is produced using high-quality milk from cows grazing on Alpine pastures, creating a wide range of flavors from mild to mature. Chocolate is another national specialty, with Switzerland known for its innovation and craftsmanship since the development of milk chocolate in the 19th century. During the tasting, you will sample selected regional cheeses and artisan chocolates while learning how ingredients, origin, and production methods influence flavor. Together, these specialties reflect Switzerland’s strong tradition of quality, craftsmanship, and connection to its landscape.

About Zurich

Zurich, plus grande ville de Suisse, au bord d'un lac limpide : vues alpines, vieille ville médiévale et cabaret où naquit Dada.

La vieille ville s'étend sur les deux rives de la Limmat, avec ses ruelles étroites, ses maisons de corporations et ses flèches d'églises. Les tours jumelles du Grossmünster sont l'emblème de la ville, le Fraumünster a des vitraux de Chagall, et l'église Saint-Pierre possède l'un des plus grands cadrans d'horloge d'Europe. La colline du Lindenhof offre une vue paisible sur les toits.
