About Me

Ivy
Hong Kong
I am an independent wine and cheese educator and writer. I started the initiative Cheese and Wine HK (https://cheeseandwinehk.com) in November 2018 to promote cheese and wine appreciation in Hong Kong by collaborating with top local and overseas suppliers. This blog is my space to record and share my adventures and experiences involving wine, cheese and travels. For the wine part, I am a WSET Certified Educator, an Advanced Sake Sommelier, and a Bourgogne Wines Ambassador. I have completed a number of training programmes in cheese in France, US and UK. Apart from hosting events for Cheese and Wine HK, I also work part-time at a French cheese shop in Hong Kong to continue to improve my knowledge!
