Have a look at this magnificient cheese shop, run by the family Quesnot. They know for sure what they sell, having their own cellars for maturation of cheese at 32 rue de la Fabrique, 68530 Buhl. You may find them on one of the weekly Alsatian markets in other towns like Mulhouse or Guebwiller as well.

Here you will find almost everything special about food, many of which is also ideal for small presents from your trip to Colmar. It is easy to imagine the chefs of the neighbouring restaurants coming in and have a look for something exotic to surprise their guests.
