SPECIAL PRE-ENTRY CHEESE TASTING BROUGHT TO YOU BY AMANDA MCINERNY AND HOSTED BY KRIS LLOYD!

A BRIE(F) HISTORY OF CHEESE

Cheese – we all love it, we’re learning all the storage and serving tips and, really, it’s what we’re all here for, right?

But are you ready for a deeper dive into cheese?

This is your chance to find out where it really came from – and I’m not talking cheese shops.

If you want to know a little more about the history of cheese – how it came about, which cheese styles came first,  how cheese evolved around the world, how this fabulous and utterly ancient food diversified and changed, then you’re really going to want to join Amanda McInerney, the food expert from Lambs’ Ears and Honey, on this little trip down memory lane at Cheesefest 2021.

Learn about the first cheeses known – beginning with why they came about and and how they were produced, how varying cheese styles became localised in different regions of the world, right through to the development of the more sophisticated styles we all enjoy on our platters today. And of course you’ll be tasting some of the best available examples of each kind. This is a great opportunity to broaden your personal cheese palate too, by discovering varieties related to those we will be discussing and tasting.

This is an exclusive ticketed event with limited numbers – book now at the very special price, which includes entry to CheeseFest.”
