Have you ever found yourself pondering deeply cheesy thoughts: What makes certain cheeses smell, look, or taste the way that they do? How do I serve them? What do I look for when shopping for cheeses? And where are the best places to find them locally?

Join Alice Bergen Phillips, Cheesemonster’s founder and head cheesemonger, for a lively investigation that serves up all the answers—and a tasting, too. Whether you're interested in exploring a certain style or region, finding new favorites, or just want a great introduction, you’re certain to up your cheese knowledge and have a great time as you learn.

Cheesemonster is a woman-owned mobile cheese catering and education business, which has served the Washington, D.C., area since 2017.
