Nationwide Courses

cheesepress_and_cheese

Become an artisan home cheesemaker and experience the ageless craft of making cheese.

The day cheese course
is a demonstration of four different cheeses, either Cheddar, Mascarpone, Feta and Ricotta or Gouda, Camembert, Liptour and Quark. The day begins at 10am and I work through from the milk to the cheese, stopping for a light lunch of cheese and biscuits, then ending the demonstration around 3pm. Afterwards there is time to purchase or order any specialised cheese making equipment that you may require.
The evening demonstration
is a concise introduction and demonstration of "Mozzarellia" and general introduction to cheesemaking followed by a cheese tasting and an accompanying glass of wine. These evenings are usually very informative and a great social event.
