Mezcal & Cheese Pairing Class w/ Julia Gross

We are so excited to welcome cheese and mezcal expert and Philly native, Julia Gross, to PCS to lead a tasting class featuring some of her favorite (and hardest to find) pairings!

This class will focus on the relationship between artisan producers of cheese and mezcal and how they relate to their land and history. We will look at the role cheese has played in new world colonialism and the environmental impact of the US’s current obsession with mezcal. All this happens while tasting rare mezcals and delicious artisanal cheeses. Julia's goal is to offer a deeper understanding and respect for mezcal and the people who produce it. She wants participants to leave class with not just a love for the product, but also the process behind it. Most importantly she wants people to walk away from class with the knowledge that mezcal is so much more than just "smokey".…
