The Boursin Après-Ski Thru Shares Complimentary Cheese Boards

This winter, at one of Canada's most popular winter destinations, Boursin is treating Canadians to a reimagined après-ski experience with the Boursin Après-Ski Thru.

At Blue Mountain, a beloved destination for skiing and snowboarding, people can ski through to pick up a complimentary Boursin cheese board (featuring seasonal favourites like Boursin Garlic & Fine Herbs and Boursin Cranberry & Pepper) from January 31st to February 1st. To complete the hillside Après-Ski experience, Boursin pucks are paired with everything from seasonal vegetables and olives to charcuterie, and served with hot apple cider or hot chocolate.

After skiing through the chalet-style outpost, guests can warm up at the outdoor lounge's fire pits, explore an immersive ski-lift content studio, and unwind to a sonic experience from Toronto DJ and content creator, Elise Purdon.
