Who knew there was a donut tour in Dunkin's hometown!?! - Alton, our tour guide, was delightful. Shared fun facts along with many delicious donuts. My #1 pick was the chocolate brioche and my Aunt's fav was the apple cider from Red Hills Farms. Easy walk paired with almost perfect weather. Fun, funky facts, and far too many donuts! Give Alton the ultimate prize!
