St David's Day Celebration: Cheese from Wales
Celebrate St David's Day a couple of days early with us as we have a tasting with cheese from Wales.
Wales is not just a country steeped in Celtic culture, rugby, and the most stunning scenery in Great Britain. It is also home to some great traditional cheeses. Come say 'noswaith dda' to some Welsh cheese, and toast the St David - creator of the rolling hills of Cymru. Featured cheeses: Perl Las, Caerphilly, Harlech, Colliers Welsh Cheddar
Cheese & Beer Pairing
Our cheese and beer evenings feature 4 different cheeses paired with four interesting beers from the USA and around the world. We work with our local craft beer experts at the Craft Beer Cellar: Roslindale, to find the perfect beer match for the perfect cheese.
Complimentary hors d'oeuvres, crackers and bread etc. are served.
Cheese Pairing: Cheese 'n' Cider

The Cheese Course: What is Cheese?
In this session we will explore the process and transformation of milk into cheese, in both practice and in theory.
To do this, we will make different types of fresh cheese, and as we do so we will we sip complementary wine, and answer questions such as:
• What are the components of milk?
• Why are they special?
• What happens to milk to make cheese?
• How does this happen?
• Whey? Curds? Rennet? pH? What are they?
The session is not deisgned to be a lecture, rather a fun, interactive, hands-on session with other similarly cheese-minded folks.
It's the Chemistry practical you always wanted!
The Language of Cheese: A Wine Pairing and Sensory Experience
There are many different types of cheese available at your local cheese shop today, and they all have a different character, in flavor, aroma and texture. Not only that, but we all have different preferences and tastes for cheese. So, how do we communicate what we like? How do the terms cheesemongers use relate to the characters of the cheese?
