How do I persuade friends and family members to try new cheeses?
The key is to offer a wide variety of flavors. Mild cheeses should be in the majority, because most people new to specialty cheese find overly strong tastes intimidating. If you want them to go outside their comfort zone, heighten interest by explaining what a cheese is about (the milk it is made of, the taste, the texture, its origin) by placing a little sign next to it so they can learn as they taste. You can download small cards with simple, educational facts about any of our cheeses from this website.
