About this Event
Join award-winning cheesemonger and author Ned Palmer for a fascinating evening exploring the past, present, and future of British cheese.
Britain is home to one of the world's most diverse cheese cultures, with hundreds of distinctive regional varieties shaped by local landscapes, farming traditions, and generations of cheesemaking expertise. Yet many small-scale producers have faced near extinction – whether that be as a result of global wars, pandemics and rising production costs, labour shortages and changing consumer habits.
Through a guided tasting of exceptional British cheeses, Ned will share the remarkable stories behind the people, places, and traditions that make Britain's cheese culture worth preserving.
Whether you're a dedicated cheese lover or simply curious about Britain's food heritage, this is a rare opportunity to taste, learn, and engage with one of the country's most celebrated food writers.

- Welcome Drink
