If you LOVE cheese, this is the event that you DO NOT WANT TO MISS! Last year was the first year that the Cheese Fest took place in Cincinnati and my husband deemed it his favorite festival all year.
Why? (the giant stacks of cheese and beer in his hand might be a clue)
The Cheese Fest at Cincinnati will give you the chance to sample cheese & artisan food from around the world producers. Meet the people with the vision passion and dedication that produce some of the best artisan cheese & speciality food available.
You get to meet people who are passionate about cheese and the best part is that you get to taste LOTS of cheese. I probably consumed my calories for the month in a few hours last year and it was WORTH. EVERY. BITE.
With a general admission ticket you get UNLIMITED samples of Artisan Cheeses and Products! Yes, the good stuff! There are multiple tables set up and you just walk along and enjoy as you go.
There are other things to do if you need to pause from sampling cheese, but why would you? Last year we also enjoyed the live music and the fun photo area.
There are also venders who are selling cheese and related products if you want to take some home.
Last year we attended the VIP Session that offered an education while sampling cheese and beer that were paired together.
It was fascinating to hear the experts describe in detail what you are tasting while learning more about the process to make it. And of course, the best part is the sampling. You also get a swag bag of goodies too!
Trust me, you don’t want to miss this event! The location has moved to Smale Park and it’s a bit earlier this year.
