Today I also visited Chaneé Truter, cheesemaker at Imhoff Cheesery in Kommetjie, since 2003.  Chaneé is charming and I can see that she enjoys handcrafting the almost 20 types of cheeses they make.  The cheese shop is housed in the old farm grain silo, beautifully renovated as you can see on the pic.

I also visited the cheese factory and enjoyed the innovatively practical way of doing things.

Her Camembert cheese especially comes highly acclaimed.

Cheese Entrepreneur - Didier Bertrand

Hi, Cheese Fans

Today I visited a very interesting cheese entrepreneur in the centre of Cape Town, at 95 Hout Street, from where he has cheese and wine functions and also shortly plans to do corporate team-building with cheese making as topic!!

I could see that Didier has a real pasion for cheese and I enjoyed the 2 and 1/2 year old cheddar, thanks Didier!

Didier’s venue is called “La Forge”, because it housed up till 2000 the last Blacksmith in Cape Town - truly a remarkable venue.

Didier is a qualified and registered tour leader and 95% of his tours consist of foreigners, so he does South Africa proud!

Cheers,

Leon the Milkman

Hi, Milkies

Well, I am enjoying my time so far at Prime Pharma, and especially the time with clients!  Getting out and about in the Western Cape, I must say - we live in a beautiful part of the world - especially this time of year.

Well - here’s to good cheese!!
