The Joy of Chese is Built for Comfort: The November Tastings

No, I'm not talking about my waistline.

In November, The Joy of Cheese will present two tastings built around the theme of comfort cheeses. We're tumbling into autumn and what with cooler, if not downright colder weather, thoughts turn toward heartier cuisines. Our tastings will spotlight rich, full flavored cheeses that melt well or on their own pair with fruitier wines or stronger beers. Here are the details.

May I suggest at your tastings you introduce your tasters to a book entitled :Tasting to Eternity I believe it will help people to understand better these remarkable products.

A review of the book can be found on www.tastingtoeternity.com
