Formaticum's
CHEESE COURSE
WELCOME TO FORMATICUM’S CHEESE COURSE!
Formaticum’s Cheese Course is an educational cheese subscription box that will allow you to learn like a professional in the comfort of your home.
Expand your palate and discover your preferences with guided side-by-side tastings of five notable cheeses. We will introduce you to new favorites and well-loved classics while providing insight into each cheese’s history and lifecycle. Our monthly themes will focus on a single cheese category, and our tasting method will highlight the similarities and differences between each selection to help develop your palate and vocabulary while better understanding your preferences.
Formaticum cheese professionals select, hand-cut, and wrap each cheese for these boxes. We have spent our careers loving these cheeses and are excited to share them with you. Please join our cheese course and partake in this adventure in cheese with us.

WHY SIDE-BY-SIDE TASTING?
DEVELOPING PALATE
By directly comparing similar cheeses, we train ourselves to discern subtle differences in appearance, aroma, flavor, and texture.
BUILDING VOCABULARY
Tasting similar cheeses encourages us to articulate our sensory experience using descriptive language and better communicate our preferences.
UNDERSTANDING PREFERENCES
Directly comparing similar cheeses helps pinpoint characteristics we like or dislike.
