Curd Nerds: A Blind Cheese Tasting Game

1 hour virtual event
Virtual Cheese Tastings

Event short description

Where does the cheese tasting journey start? Well, the journey starts with the eyes. Before you even touch the cheese, visually take in its appearance with your eyes. What does the texture look like? What color is the rind? Are there any cracks or veins of color? Consider this an ocular pat-down. Touch The next step on the cheese tasting journey is touch. Getting a tactile feel for the cheese influences your perception of taste (seriously, it’s science). Is the cheese hard or soft? Light and crumbly, or dense and hard? These tactile cues can help you pin down cheese characteristics like aging and the type of rind. Take a deep breath in through your nose. Right this moment, millions of neurons in your brain are dissecting all the smells around you and telling you what’s what.
