Enjoying: Cheese and Whisky with Wensleydale Creamery

We’re looking forward to teaming up with Yorkshire Dales cheesemaker, Wensleydale Creamery for a
tasting event on 7th September.

Our UK Sales Manager, Morgan McDermott will host a tasting evening with six drams of Filey Bay whisky and three cheeses in the Visitor Centre at the Creamery in Hawes.

The pairings will include Filey Bay Flagship, STR Finish and Moscatel Finish and some of the Creamery’s most popular cheeses including Yorkshire Cheddar, Wensleydale Blue and Yorkshire Wensleydale and Cranberries.

Trish Cannon, Visitor Centre Director at the Wensleydale Creamery, pictured, said: “We’re delighted to be teaming up with Spirit of Yorkshire on this very special tasting event.

“It’s a perfect pairing for us as it brings together two artisan producers who are equally passionate about provenance and flavour. It promises to be a delicious and informative evening, and a must for any whisky enthusiast.”

“People more commonly associate cheese with wine, but cheese with whisky works so well. We’re looking forward to sharing some big Yorkshire flavours with our visitors.”
