About this event

  • 3 hours

Both Ireland and Wales boast a rich cheesemaking heritage dating back centuries. Traditionally a farmhouse affair, each family produced their own unique recipe. This struggled in the 20th Century, with many producers dissapearing over the years... but these traditions has been revived in recent years, with a growing number of small producers crafting award-winning cheeses using time-honored methods and local ingredients.

As usual it'll be all you can eat! EIGHT CHEESES - plus crackers, chutney and all the trimmings... ! There will be score sheets and tasting notes...

With a short presentation to talk you through the cheese you have been eating – this is an amazing way to find out more about these awesome IRISH and WELSH Cheeses!
