cheese pairing WORKSHOPS & tasting STATIONS
Our Cheese Pairing Workshops are perfect if you’re interested in learning the nuances of pairing the perfect cheeses to your favourite beverages, or are looking for a fun activity for your company’s team event, birthday celebration of bachelorette / bachelor party.
With so much choice available, we tend to become overwhelmed and stick to our favourite selections of cheeses and wines. Most people choose a heavy red and spicy blue to finish a meal, not knowing that this combination usually results in a less than enjoyable experience on your palate. What about choosing a hoppy pale ale to pair with that delicious cheddar? Or even a floral sake to complement a salty, ash-ripened goats cheese?
Wha't’s involved in a cheese pairing workshop?
Our cheese matching and tasting workshops are a sit-down event with four to six of our best local and overseas fromages, matched with delicious wines, beers or sakes.
We can also provide our own cheesemongers, all of whom are recognised as industry leaders in the education and appreciation of all things cheese.
A standing Tasting Station can also be arranged, perfect for corporate events. Our staff provide a 10 minute introduction to the pairings before assisting guests at the station to allow you to entertain without interruption.
Sit down events run for 1 - 1.5 hours
Detailed tasting booklet for each guest
Cutlery, tasting boards and glassware supplied
Cheesemonger & Sommelier to conduct the tasting (additional cost)

Cheese and wine TASTING
Our Cheese & Wine Tasting can be held as a sit down event or with stand up stations, both informal & formal, are conducted in a fun and informative way so you and your guests walk away with a new understanding and sense of appreciation for two of life’s greatest pleasures.
Our Cheese and Wine tastings are perfect for corporate events aiming to reward employees, entertain key clients or provide team building activities and incentives. These events are also great for bachelor parties and hens parties, as well as something different for a birthday celebration.
We offer two Cheese and Wine event packages:
4 Cheeses paired with 4 Wines : $50 per person plus GST. Minimum 10 people required.
6 Cheeses paired with 6 Wines : $70 per person plus GST. Minimum 10 people required.
Cheese and beer MATCHING
There’s a reason why the ancient monks of France and Belgium loved making and maturing cheese and beer together.
Run in the same format as our popular Cheese & Wine Tasting, our Cheese and Beer Matching events are perfect if you’re looking for something a little different. The yeast development and fermentation of both are similar, with flavours that marry very well on the palate when paired correctly. Let’s debunk the great misconception that cheese and beer do not go well together!
We offer two Cheese and Beer Matching event packages:
4 Cheeses paired with 4 Beers : $40 per person plus GST. Minimum 10 people required.
6 Cheeses paired with 6 Beers : $60 per person plus GST. Minimum 10 people required.
