About the event
THE MELBOURNE FOOD & WINE FESTIVAL REGIONAL EDITION IS BACK THIS NOVEMBER!
And we're taking part! Get ready for a Gippsland cheese and dairy style masterclass lubricated with some fine local drinks. Expect excellent fromage from the celebrated likes of Prom Country Cheese, Berrys Creek, Maffra, Tarago River Cheese and Butterfly Factory. We'll also have drinks from local Gippsland heroes as well as cheese toasties on arrival with loads of Gippsland Jersey Butter. This taste sensation is all set against the backdrop of our incredible Kongwak Butter Factory, with cows grazing the nearby pastures beyond.Â
Hosted by the MOULD CHEESE COLLECTIVE TEAM - lead by "Chief Cheese Wrangler" Olivia Sutton - the local Gippslandian cheesemakers will be taking centre stage. You’ll learn about the past and future of the landmark butter factory, and you’ll get the latest on the greatest of our region’s cheeses. Whether you’re a cheese aficionado looking for a deep dive or simply someone looking for great snacks and a fun morning of snacking, we've got you covered.
The question will be do you like it Soft, Semi, Hard or Stinky?
