Artisan Cheese for Christmas Tasting & Panel – Monday 25th November

VISIT THIS LINK – for a Event Recap of Cookery School’s Artisan Cheese for Christmas

We have teamed up with our friends at Cookery School at Little Portland Street to bring you discounted tickets to their brand new series of monthly events. Conversations Around The Cookery School Table is the place to enjoy lively discussions, networking with like-minded food lovers, and, as with all events and classes at Cookery School, the opportunity to taste some of their delicious food.  All proceeds from these events go to the charity Magic Breakfast.

Their next event takes place on November 25th 2024 from 6pm-8.30pm. In All I want For Christmas is Artisan Cheese you can enjoy an expert panel of artisan cheese makers and retailers discussing making, maturing and selling cheese at Christmas.  There will of course be a great selection of artisan cheese to taste along with canapes and organic wine.

The event will be chaired by writer & cheese podcaster Jenny Linford whose feature “The British Cheese Crisis” during lockdown was instrumental to the survival of many British producers. She will be speaking to Mary Quicke – award winning 4th generational cheesemaker (Quickes was established in 1540) widely considered the Godmother of British cheese, 3rd generational cheesemaker Jonny Crickmore of Fen Farm Dairy, producers of award winning cheeses including the acclaimed Baron Bigod and Joe Schneider maker of the creamy raw milk blue, Stichelton cheese in Nottinghamshire!

Representing cheese retailers will be Bronwen Percival the technical director for Neal’s Yard Dairy in London, and Rhuaridh Buchanan a previous winner of Cheese Counter of the Year at the World Cheese Awards for Buchanan’s Cheesemongers in London.
