Featured: Cheese and Charcuterie Tasting (Hyde Park)

Calling all Cured Meat Lovers - this one's for you!

"Charcuterie" is a French word that literally translates to "pork butcher's shop," but today encompasses a world of cured and preserved meats. And no, it does not have anything to do with cheese. That's why we're pairing two of our favorite, protein-packed foods together: Charcuterie & Cheese Pairings!

In this guided tasting experience, we'll explore various forms of charcuterie - from whole cured muscles like prosciutto, lomo, and bresaola; to large- and small-format, mold-cured salamis; and even pâté. Pork, duck, elk, rabbit, and beef. We'll do our best to enjoy a diverse selection of proteins and preservation methods, depending on what's available.

Each meat will be paired with a cheese, as well as pickles, mustards, nuts, and crackers. 

One ticket = one person and includes:

• 7 cheeses
• 7 cured meats
• food pairings like pickled veggies and mustard 
• additional treats like nuts and crackers (GF crackers avail if requested in allergies)

Beverages?

While water is provided at the tasting, we also offer bottles of wine to purchase in advance from our Cheese Shop (in purchasing options below). Alternatively, you may purchase wine, beer, and cider in the Cheese Shop prior to your event. (The Cheese Shop is across the street and open daily 11-7.) You may also BYOB; however, please note that we charge a $15 per bottle service fee, starting September 1.
