Join us for a virtual cheese and wine tasting and take a deep dive into the wonderful world of Gouda. Our Chief Educator, Juhl, will take you on an educational and tasty journey of All Things Gouda while Jessica Keahey, sommelier and the Big Cheese at Sweet Freedom, will discuss the wine pairings and accompaniments included in your kits.
Attendees will be sent a private Zoom link for the virtual guided tasting and discussion on Saturday, Nov. 5th, starting at 6:30pm CST.
There are several ways to participate. Get your tickets here and we will see you online!
