2.Taste of Europe in Mexico: History and Flavors of Artisan Cheese

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 28 reviews · 2 hours (approx.) · from $110Top rated

Join Tonya in San Miguel de Allende for a two-hour lesson on Mexican cheese, French cheesemaking traditions, and smart pairings. Taste appetizers, a dozen local artisan cheeses, regional condiments, and several drinks in a small group of no more than 12 people.

“This event is in her home, which is lovely with great view over the city. Tonya has a love of cheese and her husband has a love of wine, so we had great cheese and wine pairings. We learned so much from Tonya! She shared the history of cheese, how various cheeses are made, and we sampled something like 8 different cheeses. Really enjoyed our visit!”
