Wonderful class on cheese making. Highlight on trip to Amsterdam. Made 2 Cheeses and what we needed to make it at home. Paula was an amazing teacher and host. She talked about the history of cheese and the different molds and methods. Class is in a fun area and felt very local. Loved sitting down and sampling cheese afterwards. She answered all our questions and we felt like friends afterwards. This is a new class is why there are not of reviews.
Great Hands on Cheese making experience!

This is a wonderful small class. Something that feels very local and hands on. Fun location. Made two cheeses to take with you. Great host/ teacher/owner. Talked about how you can make the cheese at home Sat down and had a taste testing of the cheese afterwards. This is a new class so you might not see many reviews.

The cheese making class was the highlight of my trip in Amsterdam. Paula teaches you all about the cheeses you are going to make, the art of the molds, and her history of cheese making. She also gives you all the resources to start making cheese when you go home. Her class and recommendations give you the local perspective of Amsterdam. I would recommend this class to anyone who is visiting Amsterdam.
