Join Marlborough cheese-maker Lisa Harper, from Sherrington Cheese and get an introduction to the creation and appreciation of traditional cheese. Learn the differences between hard and fresh cheeses and what makes artisan cheese so different from the large-scale, factory-made product. Make two soft cheeses yourself and taste a selection of local cheeses over lunch.
Sherrington cheese has been lovingly created by hand, in a tiny farm dairy, deep in the beautiful Marlborough Sounds. It was made using techniques and recipes long abandoned by modern dairy factories, in the interest of efficiency. Luckily, the original flavour has been preserved for you by generations of women in the Harper family.
