I ran across an add for a cheese tour out of Gruene and decided to look into it more. Spur of the moment I decided to register my husband and I. WHAT A FIND! Teresa, the energetic and charming owner of the tour service, provided a short ride to the River Whey Cheese Company. Once there we were greeted by Susan Rigg, owner and head cheese master, full of stories and cheese info. I expected small cheese tastings. What I got was beautifully presented plates of cheese, fruit, veggies, and even a small roast beef slider, all prepared to show off 5 of Susan’s cheeses. Tom, a business partner, prepares the food pairings. Both Susan and Tom are graduates of culinary school, and not only know cheesemaking but really tasty ways to show it off. I’d recommend this hidden gem to everyone.

If you love cheese this is a must!! Not only were the cheeses to die for but I also learned so much about the process of making cheese! Susan, the creamery owner, is extremely knowledgeable and entertaining. I can’t wait to host my next gathering with the cheeses I purchased from her today! Teresa, our hostess, is so full of energy the moment you step on to the bus you feel so welcomed into the group! Looking forward to our next At Your Service Tour!!
