San Simón da Costa

San Simón da Costa

San Simón da Costa

  • Country: Spain
  • Cheese Texture/Type: Semi-soft
  • Cheese Milk Type: Cow
  • Cheese Age: 55 days

We are honored to share with you an example of San Simón da Costa that is still handcrafted using traditional cheesemaking methods. Visually, the cheese is instantly identifiable by the unique shape of its mold, large cones that resemble cow’s teats. Our fourth-generation cheesemaking family– along with their four employees – still make their award-winning San Simón da Costa adjacent to their home in another small building on their property...

Fontina Val d'Aosta

Fontina Val d'Aosta

Fontina Val d'Aosta

  • Country: Italy
  • Cheese Texture/Type: Semi-firm
  • Cheese Milk Type: Cow
  • Cheese Age: 3+ months
Fontina has enough flavors on its own to summarize the characteristics of the entire Itailan region of Valle d’Aosta. Fontina is dense, smooth and slightly elastic. The straw-colored interior, with its small, round holes, has a delicate nuttiness with a hint of mild honey. This supple cheese’s flavor hints of pristine forest floors, then shifts to a lovely yet powerful lingering scent of wild mushrooms.

Drunken Goat

Drunken Goat

Drunken Goat

  • Country: Spain
  • Cheese Texture/Type: Firm
  • Cheese Milk Type: Goat
  • Cheese Age: 3 months
This amazing goat cheese is made in the village of Jumilla in the Murcia region of Spain, which is on the southeastern coast. It is most unusual, and in fact it is very difficult to find. The name Drunken Goat conjures up images of goats weaving about the pasture… perhaps even snoozing on their backs with their hooves pointed to the blue sky. But just in case you were wondering… wine, beer, or any other form of spirits are not fed to the goats. Rather the cheese is soaked in wine. The flavor begins as mild and sooo creamy, but finishes with a wonderful tangy sweetness and a fruity, lusciously, grapey aroma.

Plymouth Original

Plymouth Original

Plymouth Original

  • Country: United States
  • Cheese Texture/Type: Firm
  • Cheese Milk Type: Cow
  • Cheese Age: 12 months

Although cheesemaker Jesse Werner is making quite a few outstanding cheeses, we simply had to share their flagship cheese with you. It’s aged for 12 months and hand dipped in a bright red wax as the early settlers did. The cheddar flavor is an outstanding balance of sweetness and savory flavors. Many cheddars today are being made sweeter and sweeter, but this cheese is a step away from that trend.

Üsi Minnie

Üsi Minnie

Üsi Minnie

  • Country: Switzerland
  • Cheese Texture/Type: Semi-firm
  • Cheese Milk Type: Cow
  • Cheese Age: 2+ months

Üsi Minnie presents a rich, dense, creamy paste. It’s not hard to conjure images of the field that Minnie grazed in to produce this bold and flavorful cheese as it evokes deep roasted nutty and buttery flavors, balanced nicely with big floral, herbal and grassy notes. A touch of lactic bite and spice on the finish round it out nicely. Overall, a really unique and flavorful Alpine cheese.

Quattro Portoni Blu di Bufala

Quattro Portoni Blu di Bufala

Quattro Portoni Blu di Bufala

  • Country: Italy
  • Cheese Texture/Type: Semi-firm
  • Cheese Milk Type: Buffalo
  • Cheese Age: 3 months

We’re truly excited to feature this aged buffalo milk cheese in The Rare Cheese Club. It first caught our attention in 2012 when it won a super gold at the World Cheese Awards and then was runner-up for Best of Show with a score that was identical to the champion’s. It’s truly rare to source an aged buffalo milk cheese. You’re in for a treat.
