Taste of Quebec Artisan Cheeses - Feb 19

The Great Canadian Cheese Discovery

Featuring artisan cheeses of Quebec

Join Savvy Company’s Cheese Sommelier Vanessa Simmons - as she leads you through a delicious discovery of artisan cheeses from throughout Quebec.

And Vanessa knows her cheese! She has trained with the Cheese Education Guild in Toronto – Canada’s only comprehensive cheese appreciation program and spends countless hours with local cheesemongers and cheesemakers. Her passion for cheeses oozes while her knowledge will melt away all notions that Canada only makes cheddar.

Vanessa will show you the ’whey’ as you will sample and savour five to seven cheeses from Quebec. She will also introduce you to the fun-damentals of cheese appreciation including:

- Cheese 101 - how cheese is made and what makes it artisanal

- Different categories of cheese

- Cheese-y lingo

- Buying cheese

- Caring for cheese

Being a Savvy Event, of course, Canadian wines will be tasted too!

TIP: We recommend having dinner in advance – come early to dine at Thyme & Again Creative Catering for light meal

Reviews from our guests....

"I was never one to even think about cheese, yet after last night's tasting and great information I am now giving up the store bought cheese! What a difference." - Joanne

"What an extremely enjoyable night last light. The venue at Thyme and Again was very comfortable and professional. Vanessa engaged everyone around the table. The way the cheese was presented one at a time with your talk about it and your knowledge was good for all. I will definitely be back with more friends!' - Lynda
