Classes and Events
We host a range of classes and events to pique the interest of any cheese lover. From cheeseboard workshops to cheese and wine classes, to scraping cheese on Raclette Sundays or melting cheese for our cozy Fondue Nights, we love serving Richmond the best cheese! We are also happy to schedule private tastings and classes. Check back regularly or follow us on social media for the latest scheduled classes and events.

Have you always dreamt of a cheese vacation? (Us too) We're going to England this fall and we'd love to have you join us! We've partnered with a seasoned cheese lover and traveler, Anna Juhl, who owns Cheese Journeys for an October trip. Cheese Journeys has been written up in the New York Times and Food and Wine Magazine for the incredible behind-the-scenes experiences they provide. The cheese community is a small one and I've worked with Anna's daughters, Leah and Rachel, in their capacities at Essex St Cheese, for well over a decade.

Our communal guided tasting includes 5 cheeses and a wine (or beer) pairing for each. Your cheesemonger will talk about each cheese, the paired wine or beer, and basic pairing principles. Grab a spot at one of our six person communal table tastings, eat some cheese, and maybe make a friend or two.
French Fête Fête! This weekend! We’re so excited about Ruth Reichl’s visit to Richmond and Henrico Public Library, that we’re throwing a Fête Fête! We’ll have a French menu both days, loads of featured French wines and samples of our favorite French cheeses! Why two fêtes? Because it’s a two day celebration! (And why can’t we do anything normal? Because we love things a little off kilter, honestly.) Join us!
The British (cheeses) are coming! The British (cheeses) are coming! Join us for our first workshop focused entirely on British cheeses! We’ll talk through five cheese and wine pairings. Anna Juhl from Cheese Journeys will join us to talk about the cheesemakers behind these icons and will also talk about our upcoming British Cheese Journey this October. Michael from Native Selections will talk about the wine. Join us!
Social and Networking Events
We love hosting groups who want to learn a thing or two about cheese and wine, in a casual, fluid setting that lends itself to chatting.
