A cheese tasting in the heart of Paris

The appointment is taken on the afternoon. It is Pierre Brisson, our expert cheesemaker that welcomes you to the famous Enfants Rouges market. Through a back door, he takes you into the basements of a family dairy: Fromagerie Jouannault. The decor is perfect. You are now in the vaulted cellars of the 17th century!

How do you make cheese?

Great question that our cheese expert is happy to answer. No big lecture but a friendly conversation. Curdling, draining, salting, molding, pressing, refining, washing, all these steps are crucial in producing a tasty product.

Moreover, when do we taste? ?

How to pair cheeses and wines?

Time to get serious: the tasting. At the sight of the knife on the table, we say that cutting the cheese is not something to be taken lightly.

Yes. The cut, look, feeling and taste of cheese deserves attention.

“Take the time to melt each piece of cheese between the tongue and palate,” says Pierre Brisson. His hobby is the « caséologie » : science related to the study and knowledge of cheese. Because tasting it is an art !

Our cheese expert would show it to you cheese after cheese, wine after wine : The pairings are delicious and sometimes surprising. Red wine or white wine? The answer is not always what we think. On set, the 7 families of cheese for a game that awakens your taste buds.
