Edinburgh in Winter: Cheddar, Red Wine & Fireside Flavors

Edinburgh in winter is pure mood: misty streets, glowing pubs, and food that feels made for cold nights. This class celebrates Scotland’s winter traditions through a guided tasting of exceptional cheeses, a bold red wine pairing, and a selection of small bites inspired by the region’s fireside cuisine.

We’ll explore the story of clothbound cheddars, the role of oats and butter in Scottish foodways, and the comforting flavors that define Scotland’s cold-weather cooking — from earthy root vegetables to gentle smoke and coastal influences. Think hearty textures, and quiet winter luxury.

Each Global Winter Series class includes:

• A guided wine flight;
• Four paired small bites featuring regional cheeses, accoutrements, and familiar winter snacks;
• A rich, educational tour of the city’s culinary traditions led through immersive storytelling from our Wedgewood cheese and wine experts;
• A take-home guide that blends recipes, cultural context, and historical influences; and
• Access to limited and seasonal wine and cheese selections curated specifically for that winter destination.
