Canary Island cheese: tradition and flavour
Have you ever wondered what makes Canarian cheese so special? Beyond its unmistakable flavour and creamy texture, each piece of cheese from our islands tells a story: of tradition, sustainability and people who love their land. At La Jaira de Ana, we don’t just make cheese; we teach you how to live it. Our workshops are not just another class: they are an immersive experience that connects young and old alike with Canarian culture, the rhythms of the countryside and respect for animals. Canarian cheese, more than a food, a legacy. Canarian cheese is not only part of the local gastronomy, but a symbol of the primary sector in the Canary Islands. In our workshops, you will discover curiosities such as: Why Canarian goat’s milk has such a peculiar flavour. What is the difference between a fresh cheese and a cured cheese and how it is made. What role rural women play in the production of this food and why their work is key to keeping this tradition alive. Learn, create and taste During the workshop, you will go through all the stages of production: from milking the goat (yes, you make it!) to moulding your own cheese. Plus, the experience is rounded off with a tasting of local cheeses, paired with other artisanal products such as mojos. This approach is perfect for those looking for: Educational and family activities in Gran Canaria. Different rural getaways. Reinforce values such as sustainability and conscious eating. A recognised experience with impact Recently, La Jaira de Ana has been recognised with the FADEMUR label, which highlights projects led by rural women that promote sustainability, entrepreneurship and social transformation from the rural environment. This label reinforces our work philosophy: teaching by example and transforming from the local level. Would you like to discover the soul of Canarian cheese with your own hands? We are waiting for you at our farm school in Gran Canaria to take part in this unique experience. It is much more than making cheese: it is reconnecting with nature, with craftsmanship and with an essential part of our identity.
