The only address for real Bayonne ham!! - A beautiful 45-minute discovery at the heart of the latest craftsmanship of Bayonne ham and other products on offer. The speaker was really very good. From product traceability to manufacturing and advice , everything was TOP! To be honest, it is rare today, to discuss and share a moment like this with the craftsman.The good surprises come from the taste of the products (much less salty than the industrial.It recalls the accuracy of the product to make it a master stallion. The price is justified and not exorbitant as one might imagine. The surprise: Le Cochisson to discover!!!Very nice address to discover,at cheap , quality craft products.
