Talbott & Arding said this: “The best cider we've ever had. The best Parmigiano, Gouda, Manchego, Comte we've ever had. The pairing event you simply can't miss!”

Rose Hill Farm is a historic family-owned fruit orchard established in 1798. They holistically grow cherries, blueberries, plums, apricots, nectarines, peaches and apples on 114 acres of picturesque farmland. Their low-intervention cider and winemaking is an honest expression of the land and a natural extension of Rose Hill's holistic orchard practices. Best quality fruit, nothing added, nothing removed.

Essex St. Cheese focuses on selecting and importing a limited range of iconic European cheeses. They work directly with cheesemakers and agers to select consistently flavorful wheels and ship them to New York. The cheeses in the Essex catalogue are household names: Comte, Manchego, Parmigiano, Feta, Gouda. That, however, is where the ordinary ends. The small-production, thoughtfully crafted versions of these famous wheels imported by Essex boast intricacies of flavor and texture that soar above the competition.
