Fans come from far and near to taste their dairy delights and learn about the cheesemaking process. They now offer a dedicated tasting in the heart of Amsterdam. Sample what it means to be Dutch, and wash it down with a swig of the local brew.
At the 'Cheese & More Shop' of Henri Willig, take the stairs at the end of the store and show your smartphone ticket. The tasting is at the attic.

Antique did an excellent presentation detailing the history of the Willig family and how the cheese is produced. This was followed by the tasting and a nice glass of red wine. Good value. Recommended.

Heineken Experience
The Heineken Experience is located in the original Heineken Brewery. Gerard Adriaan Heineken bought this building back in 1863 when it was the De Hooiberg brewery. He then turned it towards the production of his eponymous beer. The building remained a brewery all the way up to 1988. It was then that it became a museum (and hotspot for Heineken consumption).
Located in the vibrant neighborhood of De Pijp, the Heineken Experience is ideally situated for a canal cruise, and some city exploration that takes you away from the hustle and bustle of Dam Square.
Since 2001, it's been the world-famous Heineken Experience. After a year-long update and redesign in 2008, the Heineken Experience is more Heineken-y and Experience-y than ever before.
