An après-ski cheese party, for one night only. Fortnum’s hands its entire Lower Ground Floor to me and turns it into a mountain lodge of Alpine cheese, music and generous pours.

Wander between stations of Fortnum’s cheese and Food Hall classics, taste with me as you go, and expect a few Alpine surprises along the way. Après-ski dress encouraged.

Small on purpose. Not forty people in a function room, but a conversation across the counter where you can ask anything.

Morgan McGlynn Carr serves guests at a Cheese Lates tasting inside Cheeses of Muswell Hill, with boards of cheese and glasses of wine along the counter — A Cheese Late at the shop.

Where it began

Cheeses of Muswell Hill, London N10

My family's shop is seven metres long and two metres wide. After hours, six guests pull up stools at the counter and taste straight from the cabinet I stock every day.

Fortnum & Mason

The Food Hall, 181 Piccadilly

In 2026 I took Cheese Lates to Fortnum's. Eight guests, locked in after dark downstairs in the Food Hall, the first event Fortnum's had held in that space.

Tickets sold out within an hour.

Cheese is culture, not product. The best place to understand that is at the counter, with the person who chose it.
