Event Highlights:

• Duration: 1 hour of sensory discovery
• Led by cheese expert, Luciana Villanueva, who will guide you through a flavor deconstruction experience
• Interactive tasting that goes beyond traditional sampling

The Sensory Voyage:

Participants will explore cheese through four critical dimensions:

1. Smell (Olfactory): Uncover the complex aromatic landscapes of cheeses, learning how scent creates the first impression of flavor.
2. Visual: Examine the texture, color, and visual composition of each cheese selection, understanding how appearance hints at flavor complexity.
3. Taste (Gustatory): Discover the intricate flavor profiles, from mild to intense, exploring cheeses from different milk sources – cow, goat, and sheep.
4. Touch : Experience the “mouthfeel” – the tactile sensations that complete your tasting experience, including sensations like astringency and puckering.

The Perfect Bite Challenge:

The culmination of our journey will be a playful, interactive session where participants will construct their personal “perfect bite”. By combining learned flavor insights, you’ll create a unique cheese combination that represents your individual palate.

Prepare for a delicious, educational, and thoroughly engaging exploration of cheese that will transform how you perceive and enjoy this remarkable food.
