Granja y Quesería Aborigen
Arafo
The Aboriginal Farm and Cheese Factory, located in the municipality of Arafo, represents a living tribute to Tenerife's pastoral tradition and the deep relationship that ancient islanders, including the Guanches, had with goat farming. This space not only produces high-quality artisanal cheeses but is also dedicated to preserving the essence of a craft that is part of the island's cultural heritage.
In its facilities, you can get up close and personal with goats, animals that since Aboriginal times have been a fundamental pillar of Tenerife's subsistence, providing milk, meat, and skins. The cheese factory maintains production processes that respect tradition, using fresh goat milk to obtain cheeses with their own unique personality: from tender and mild to cured cheeses with more intense flavors.
In addition to production, the farm offers tours where visitors can discover firsthand how milk is transformed into cheese, learn about the different varieties, and taste the products in an authentic and natural setting. All of this makes the experience a journey into the past, recalling how pastoral techniques and Aboriginal culture left an indelible mark on Tenerife's culinary identity.
More than just a gastronomic space, it's a project committed to sustainability, respect for the environment, and the transmission of ancestral knowledge. A visit to the Aboriginal Farm and Cheese Factory in Arafo is an enriching experience that unites nature, history, and flavor in a unique experience that connects visitors with the island's deepest roots.
