Traveler reviews
The experience
The Quedlinburg mustard factory occupies a former horse stable of the Dippe seed company, and the tour starts with the history of how that building became a working manufactory. You'll learn mustard's role as both a seasoning and a medicinal agent, not just a condiment, and then move into the production space itself to see how it's made.
The tasting is the core of the experience: you'll try at least three varieties of mustard, tasting the actual differences between yellow and brown mustard and understanding how each one works in cooking and on the palate. The factory shop sits at the end, stocked with mustard, chili paste and herb salt made on-site, so you can take home what you've tasted.
The whole visit runs about an hour. A German-speaking guide leads the tour, and the space is set up with generous table spacing and hand disinfection available. Toilets are on-site. If you have a mustard allergy, the operator recommends skipping this one.
Is this one for you?Book the guided tour if you want to understand how mustard is made and taste multiple varieties in one sitting: the walk through the actual production space and the side-by-side tasting make the differences real in a way a shop visit alone does not. Choose the workshop option if you want hands-on instruction in making or using mustard instead.
