Top 15 Cheeses for 15 Years in Biz!

We cannot believe it y'all. What started as a honeymoon decision to quit our jobs and "do something in cheese" because "cheese makes people happy" not only turned into Austin's first cut-to-order cheese and pairings shop but has evolved into a a community of cheese lovers who love coming together through our events and tastings, gathered around our cheese trays, and opening our monthly cheese club, in addition to enjoying our cheese at restaurant partners and of course, in our shop. We are sustained by you, our mission to "Do Good. Eat Good.", and a whole lotta delicious cheese. It's been a heckuva wild ride.

To celebrate, we launched this event for our anniversary. Within an hour, we had a waitlist of a couple hundred folks. So, we're bringing the party going and offering it a few more times. Come celebrate with us by enjoying many of our favorite bites over the past 15 years!

This special tasting menu is our biggest ever, including 15 cheeses and food pairings, selected by Kendall & John Antonelli and led by our team of Certified Cheese Professionals and Cheese Hosts.
