SAY CHEESE TO THAT

Cheese & Wine Tasting Discovery by Davy's Wine Bar

Ned Palmer is a former jazz pianist turned cheesemonger and he’ll be your host for this enthralling experience. Train your taste buds to taste the different nuances that British and French cheeses bring to the table and feed your brain with the stories of their origins and how their flavours were found in the first place.You’ll take a trip across Europe with eight artisanal cheeses, spanning everything from mediaeval Roquefort, the most famous blue cheese from Southern France, to cheddar, which sprang up in an English town of the same name in the 12th century. Explore the world of soft cheeses that have been enjoyed for hundreds of years, take in a few contemporary classics from the UK, and sample breads and fruit pastes as you go.Palmer’s passion for all things related to his new occupation was outlined in his 2019 book, A Cheesemonger’s History of the British Isles. His enthusiasm for the subject is sure to stir every cheese lover's heart as you taste and learn in his company at El Vino. El Vino is situated near the River Thames and is just a hop, skip, and jump from the City Thameslink station. Spacious and beautifully decorated, the friendly team at this cellar bar will make your cheese and wine journey a real treat.The perfect way to spend some quality time with a fellow cheese-lover, this journey of discovery has all the right ingredients, from bubbly to bread, and artisanal cheese that are steeped in history.
