  • The cheesemonger guided tasting has a few differences from our classes:

    • It is available to schedule anytime Tuesday-Sunday, 11:30-7pm. Our classes have set times.

    • The guided tasting features 10 cheeses, our classes normally feature 5.

    • The Guided Tasting allows for more socializing with your tablemates. Classes are generally more information dense, hour long guided tastings.

    • Cheesemonger Guided Tastings are more flexible, as you may change your reservation time up to 48 hours in advance.

    While we love our class program, the Cheesemonger Tastings are great if you have a specific day/time, wish to have a private tasting for a smaller group, or are looking for a special experience.
