First Ever SPICY Cheese Tasting! Some Like It Hot - Spicy Cheese Tasting
![]() Beverage Pairing Note: We normally recommend bubbles and sparkling beverages as pairings. The effervescence of the bubbles will make spicy flavors even pricklier. If you want that, go for it. Otherwise, we recommend still whites and rose wines, or even thicker, milkier stouts and porters for this pairing. Local Pickles! ![]() Based in Austin, Sheena uses fresh, seasonal, and local produce to make pickled yummies. Shenna started pickling for fun in 2012 - but her circle of family and friends didn’t let her keep it as a hobby. And Sheena’s Pickles was born. Help us welcome a local maker into our shop. (Fun fact: Sheena taught a pickling class in our Adult Summer Camp Series about 7 years ago!)

Nope, all events are virtual right now. Does your virtual event come with a physical cheese plate for tasting? Yes! You pick up your cheese plate via contactless curbside the day of the event (or you may be able to add on delivery for a fee to some addresses). Refrigerate your plate. Then pull it out of the fridge 45min before your event start. Do you deliver? While we don’t personally deliver, we do partner with Favor Fleet and DropOff Couriers to some locations. You don’t have to do that work though. Just order as you normally would, and we’ll handle the delivery part. Can I have a private virtual party or event? Yes! We’ve teamed up with individuals for special occasions like anniversaries and milestone birthdays, with companies to offer teambuilding appreciation events, and with nonprofits alike to help us all still cope with and celebrate through this pandemic. You need a group of at least 12 for a private party (at $40pp). Can you ship my cheese plate? Unfortunately, no. We cut cheese the day of the event. And what makes for good class plates (ie 1 ounce sample portions) does not make for good shipping conditions. However, we do offer a Cheese 101 Class in a Box and an American Cheese Class in a Box that we can ship. Get a group of 12 purchases, and we’ll ship to your locations around the United States AND host a live event guided by one of our cheesemongers. News Around Town ![]() In The News It’s no surprise that folks moved to virtual, updated their ecommerce, and are trying to keep their businesses alive any way they can. We’re proud to be the first (as far as we know!) to offer a Cheese Class in a Box, as well as one of the first to take our cheese tastings virtual last March. To that end, we’ve taught over 7000 folks in virtual tastings since the pandemic hit. Thank YOU for helping keep our business alive!
