HVCS held an exclusive cheese and wine tasting party at the Beacon Pantry (in Beacon, of course) on Wednesday, November 5, 2014. Owner Stacey Penlon and cheese fanatic Jen guided an intimate group of supporters through the seven styles of cheese, while local wine expert Bob Brink paired each offering with a special wine. It was a trip around the globe and through time as Stacey and Jen revealed the mysterious beginnings of cheese and the traditional methods now being revived by artisanal cheesemakers. Guests went home with some HVCS schwag, a Parmigiano Reggiano frisbee, and a huge block of knowledge about cheese!
