Corporate Cheese Tasting Class

Salty. Tangy. Earthy. Sweet. You’ve eaten cheese before, but have you really tasted it?

Unite with fellow cheese lovers and enjoy an unforgettable virtual team building activity in the Cheese Lover Class led by Chef Greg. All participants get a deluxe cheese box shipped right to their door, filled with five specialty cheeses and two complementary accompaniments. 

Participants have the opportunity to sharpen their cheese knowledge and learn the fundamentals of cheese pairing with Chef Greg. He’ll explain why creamy, gooey cheeses taste even better with bubbles, how bitterness complements a buttery cheese, and more in the virtual class. It’s the perfect company happy hour, holiday event, or celebration of work well done. Get the whole team ready for a delectable evening.
