In each monthly episode, host Ian Jones chats with artisans, experts and cheese lovers from coast to coast. Discover Canadian fine cheeses, learn delicious new ways to enjoy them and get a taste of local culture.
Ian Jones developed his love for cheese growing up in England. Now based in Montreal, he brings his love of good food and a passion for storytelling to this monthly podcast.
In this episode, Ian steps onto “the taste trail” to discover a region many foodies consider the culinary destination in Ontario right now. He visits a cheese-making company with over 100 years of history. He loads up his picnic basket at some of the best little shops in the region. And he takes a trip to a local vineyard to find that perfect bottle.
Naturally, Ian’s journey through Prince Edward County begins with a search for delicious cheese. The Black River Cheese Company offers naturally aged cheeses that are also vegetarian-friendly.
Their selection has grown quite a bit since they produced their first curds in 1901. Come by and sample their sumptuous selection.
Before visiting Prince Edward County’s beautiful countryside for a picnic, Ian heads into Picton for supplies. And his basket was filled with the best, thanks to Rebecca LeHeup-Bucknell from Taste the County.
Prince Edward County is known for natural beauty, local foods and warm hospitality. For your next holiday, why not discover this “ gourmand’s paradise” yourself.
Ian paid a visit to the Long Dog Vineyard & Winery to pick up some of their outstanding Pinot Noir, and couldn’t resist snagging a bottle of Pinot Gris as well.
The rich agricultural community in the Prince Edward County region includes exceptional wineries. The area’s wine industry has blossomed in the past few years, giving rise to some outstanding local vintages.
