Join us in supporting SIMON JOHNSON as they host  a rare opportunity to explore the renowned Saint Agur blue cheese from the Auvergne region in France. This is a sit down Cheese & Wine Masterclass, offering the chance to learn in person with experts on the day.

Discover the story behind this velvety blue cheese from the Auvergne region of France—crafted from milk sourced within 80km of the dairy and aged for three months to develop its signature creamy texture and bold flavour.

About
Made from cow’s milk in the Auvergne region of France in the village of Beauzac, this modern cheese was developed from an old monastery recipe as a creamy cow’s milk alternative to Roquefort.

Milk is collected from farms within an 80km radius of the dairy, with the average size of the herd around just 80 cows. Cows graze at an altitude of over 800m on pastures dotted with wild flowers.

After three months maturation, the cheese develops a rich creamy texture and distinctive blue flavour. The octagonal form is inspired by the natural basalt rock formation from the volcanic activity in the region.
