Alto Dairy

Top choice in North Coast


Creamy Tomme cheese, tangy blues and yoghurt thick enough to snap a plastic spoon are just a few of the delights of this all-goat-milk dairy, 1.5km south of Lohamei HaGeta’ot in little Shomrat. It's run by local farmer Ariel Mazan, who is passionate about high-quality, nutrient-packed goat milk – and it shows in the rich local cheeses and desserts on sale.

Buy cheeses by the gram or stop for tasty sandwiches, salads and quiches at the attached cafe. The kitchen stops taking orders 1½ hours before closing time.

After entering the village, follow the happy goat signs to the farm.
