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.

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.
Mountain Cheese & Wine
To the mountains we go! Join us on an exploration of cheese and wine from mountainous regions. We'll pair five cheeses with five wines and will talk about soil, seasonality, history, and flavor. We'll chat cheese and our friends at Potomac Selections will talk wine. Join us!
Join us on December 10th to celebrate Terre Madre Day! A brainchild of Slow Food Foundation, Terre Madre Day celebrates eating good food, the benefits of local food systems, regenerative farming, and thoughtful consumption. Caromont Farm, Reservoir Distillery, Common Grain Alliance, Belmont Butchery, Native Selections, and Janet’s Cafe and Bakery will join us. We’ll have a special cheese, charcuterie, and bread menu available as well as all natural wines by the glass. The menu will be available all day and representatives from these local powerhouses will join us at 6 pm. Drop in, eat and drink with us and celebrate great food!
It’s about time we all had a Proper British Christmas together! We have a veritable ton of British cheeses coming from our friends at Neal’s Yard Dairy that we can't wait to share with you. Join us December 12-14th for cheese and tea pairings, port pairings, maybe a little chutney, loads of samples, and even a proper British raclette (Ogleshield) on Sunday! Join your cheese community and shout “Happy Christmas!”
Fondue Friday!!!
We’re excited to offer Fondue every Friday starting the first (cooler) Friday in September. Come enjoy our favorite bread, fruit, and veggies dipped in hot, stretchy, melty Alpine cheese!
Raclette Sunday
Returning this October…. Raclette Sundays! We’ll melt wheels of Swiss raclette over bread, pickled veggies, and charcuterie each Sunday from 12:00-5:00! Relaxed and fun and open to all!
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.
