When I was a little girl, I went everywhere with my grandfather. One of our favorite places to go to was the local deli. The cool temperature inside was a welcome refuge from the heat of the valley. The smell of freshly baked breads, deli meats, and cheeses made me smile with delicious expectation. As soon as we returned to the house, we’d start nibbling on different types of cheeses first. I never suspected that enjoying cheese could get any better. Imagine my pleasure the first time I sat down with a group of friends and tasted a great wine perfectly paired with cheese.

The history of cheese is a mystery itself. Although no one can say for sure when it was first made, who it was made by, and where it was made, it is produced world-wide from milk from animals such as buffalo, cows, goats, and sheep. There are hundreds of different types of cheeses. This is why the opportunity to share in a cheese and wine pairing with Cheesemonger John Raymond is something very special.
