OCTOBER 29th: The Alchemy of Cheesemaking! Witchy Wines and Spooky Cheeses!

About this item

Alchemy arose from the desire to distill and perfect certain metals, that by certain methods a hunk of humble ore could be turned to gold. Cheesemaking embodies this transformation. With four simple ingredients, a vat of milk can be alchemized into anything from Brie to Parmigiano Reggiano. 

In this class we will be showcasing milk's many miraculous transformations. We will also be exploring the points in history where cheesemaking and witchcraft overlap.

Disco Liquids will be providing a selection of biodynamic wines. 'Biodynamics' is a philosophy of viniculture that combines organic winemaking practices with mystic spirituality. Grapes are planted and harvested according to the phases of the moon, and the earth is treated as a whole living organism. 

Class will include a flight of 5 cheeses, each with a wine pairing.
