Welcome to Véronique and Léo's beautiful shop for an introduction to cheese pairing!
It will start with some theoretical explanations about cheese, its conception and its history.
Then, the specialists will give you details of the different products available. You will learn how to match cheeses with different products such as different types of wine, beer, tea or even chocolate.
Through tasting, they will explain to you why these pairings work so well. Thanks to this workshop, you will have the opportunity to try out little-known, original, but above all, delicious combinations!
In fact, your senses will be on alert throughout this discovery!

Native of the Jura, they raised goats before moving to Belgium. Véronique specialises in herbal medicine. Léo has always had his hands in cheese. On the farm, he made cheese with his sister throughout his childhood.
After having moved, the passion for cheese remained! He started working in Paris while Véronique was elected First Cheese maker of Belgium in 2016, which is similar to the Best Craftsman of France (MOF)!
In July 2017, they decide to join forces and launch "La Fruitière" together, a polymorphous place dedicated to cheese. Right in the centre of Brussels, you can find a cheese shop coupled with a magnificent cheese bar where sourced and matured dairy products are king! It is a place of exchange, hospitality and encounter where everyone can take a break and enjoy cheese.
Visit them and admire their four maturing cellars visible from the street! Epicureans and enthusiasts, they will welcome you with enthusiasm to share their passion for fine cheeses.
