Wine OR Wine & Food

There are lots of ways to classify cheeses, from the milk type to the country where the cheese is made, but the most common way is by rind type and texture: Fresh cheese, Bloomy rind, Semi-soft cheese, Washed rind (stinky!), Firm cheese, Hard cheese, and Blue cheese. In this class, we’ll take a look at examples of each type of cheese, learn a bit about how cheese is made, and what makes it so delicious! We’ll also discuss how to store cheese so that it stays fresh and yummy. Of course, we’ll also be paring our cheeses with a selection of wines, and learning how to choose the right wines for your cheeses. The class is limited to 24 students, so please sign up early! Also, save money and sign up for all three classes.
