Venissimo Cheese

Venissimo's mission is to do for cheese what Starbucks® did for coffee! They will do that by sharing the goodness & glory of cheese. Literally. When you visit the shop, you can taste absolutely anything you like. Their friendly cheeseheads and descriptive receipts (complete with pronunciations, country of origin, milk type & more) aim to take the intimidation out of artisinal cheese shopping. "Someday, camembert will be as well-known as cappuccino," says Cheese Wiz Gina.
