About this event

Are you a cheese lover? Do you want to know more about it? Cheese 101 is the place to start. Sit and enjoy a plate of some of our best cheeses (with a little wine to wash it down, of course) as we get down to the basics. We’ll guide you through a delicious tasting of fresh and bloomy cheeses, washed rind and aged, plus a variety of cow, sheep, and goat cheese, all while learning about cheese-making, storage, and serving. Leave with your newfound knowledge and order confidently the next time you’re at a cheese counter!

Organized by

We share an obsessive passion for food and cheese in particular, and we want to share that with our customers.

We enjoy educating customers as much as we enjoy offering up delectable goodies from around New England, and the world. Ask anyone who's attended one of our Cheese School classes – you won't look at cheese the same way. We have Certified Cheese Professionals on staff, a designation earned through the American Cheese Society. Some of our team has competed at the Cheesemonger Invitational, a rigorous competition to test their skills and knowledge.

We pride ourselves on supporting the American cheesemaker, as well as other artisan food producers nationwide and worldwide. We love forging relationships with small farms and other producers to bring you the finest cheese and specialty foods available.

We are members of The American Cheese Society, the leading organization promoting and supporting cheese in North America. We're also members of Slow Food USA and the Vermont Cheese Council, and we have the Snail of Approval from our local Slow Food chapter.
