Join Cheese Journeys for a free virtual masterclass on the mighty mountain cheeses of the Savoie region of France and the Swiss Alps on Thursday 25th April.
Anna Juhl, Cheese Journeys Founder and CEO, will be joined by co-host Patrick McGuigan, Food Writer and Educator – and together with guests, will explore and taste their way through iconic cheeses that originate in these beautiful regions. Think cheese history and heritage, flavour, texture and how best to serve them.
Anna and Patrick will be joined by esteemed affineurs from the Savoie and the Swiss Alps, who will talk and taste through their delicious cheeses (curd to counter)! There will also be a guest appearance from Teresa Kaufman, Cheese Scout and Professional Photographer, who will appear for a quick-fire interview with Anna. Teresa is a master when it comes to scouting off the grid cheesemakers and unique culinary experiences.
