Cheese 101 with Life Love Cheese

You've asked for it and Life Love Cheese finally created a Cheese 101 class for all the cheese lovers out there who want to dive into the wonderful world of cheese and learn about why cheese is such a magical product.

The thousands of cheeses in the world are made of four simple ingredients - milk, salt, enzymes and cultures. Oh...we forgot...there's also magic.

Join us for a 4-part class held at 5:30pm on the third Sunday of the month - January 25, February 22, March 22 and April 26. Space is limited to 12 people, so sign up soon.

Here's what we will cover (Each class will include a sample of 2 wines alongside the tastings):

1. How Cheese is Made? Milk + Magic = Yum: Cheese is commonly made of Goat, Cow and Sheep Milk. We will tastes some cheeses made from each, talk about milk composition and show how those ingredients work with a simple curd making demo.
2. Explore Cheese Styles: A flavorful tour through common styles of cheese like fresh, bloomy, washed, cheddar, pressed, washed, and blue.
3. How to Taste Cheese: We all love the flavor of cheese, but during this session, we will use all the senses to taste compare similar cheese styles that have different sensory characteristics.
4. The Art of Affinage: Our last class will celebrate how cheeses age and why it matters. We will same a few cheeses of different age to compare. We will sample a few sparkling wines as well.

Every student will recieve a copy of Stuff Every Cheese Lover Should Know by Alexandra Jones and a Cheese Log journal by Formaticum.

One additional perk to help you learn all about cheese, every student get 10% off all purchases in the store over the duration of the class (January 25 through April 26).
