Normandy Cheese (and Gin) Night

Overview

Sydney, you can't get enough cheese into you this winter. We've brought you evenings dedicated to raclette and wine, French baguettes smothered in melted deliciousness and a new delivery service that'll soon be bringing Aussie cheeses to your doorstep.

Now, we present something a little more specific: cheeses from Normandy with matching gin. That's right, this cosy little evening — to be hosted by Moya's Juniper Lounge — is promising to take you on a trip through the rolling hills of northern France. Just a few of the cheeses in which the area specialises include camembert, Pavé d'Auge, Pont l'Evêque, Boursin, Brillat-Savarin and Brin de Paille.

Not helping you to pronounce them any better will be several gins, designed to pair with each morsel. If you're in luck, you might find yourself sampling calvados, an apple brandy that originated in Normandy.
