CM5076: Food, Culture & Communication

Travel to the Jura Mountains in eastern France and follow Comt茅
cheese from cow to consumption. Our objective is to gain an in-depth understanding of the French notion of terroir and its relationship to taste. We begin with an introduction to tasting (d茅gustation) led by local taste educator Claire Perrot. Visits include a local dairy farm, a village cheesemaking facility (fruiti猫re), a cheese-ripening facility (affineur), the local Comt茅 museum, and the headquarters of the Interprofessional Comit茅 for
Gruyere of Comt茅 (CIGC). Meals and tastings are an integral part of the learning experience and so are included in the price of the trip.
