New to Stock – Ewereka from Central Coast Creamery
We are now carrying Ewereka, Central Coast’s newest cheese. Made exclusively with sheep’s milk, this cheese is modeled on a cheddar recipe, but when we’ve tasted it here, we’ve thought it was probably closer to a gouda profile. The cheese has a light acidity, but also some vanilla and toffee notes. However you want to characterize the cheese, it has drawn rave reviews...

Essex 1605 Manchego
We often categorize Manchego as a basic cheese. It’s found virtually everywhere, easy to sell, and just flavorful enough to be crowd pleasing. Because of this, it’s easy to forget Manchego’s rich history and its notability. It was first mentioned in 1605 by Cervantes’s novel about the rambunctious nobleman of La Mancha, Don Quixote. It actually dates further back to the...

New Cheeses from Nettle Meadow
In celebration of summer we’re bringing in three new seasonal cheeses from Nettle Meadow.
Sappy Ewe
Sappy Ewe, made from a blend of sheep and cow’s milk, gets its “sappy” moniker from its maple infusion and black coating of pine ash. Striking on a cheese plate, Sappy Ewe brings hints of sweet cream, button mushrooms, herbs and earth to the table. Its center is dense...

Little Hosmer from Jasper Hill
Please
welcome the newest addition to the Cellars at Jasper Hill collection: Little
Hosmer! A “mini version of a new world-style brie”, this gooey cheese
is approachable in flavor, with notes of cauliflower, butter, and fresh
cream. Its namesake is equally charming; a small pond in Craftsbury,
Vermont, where the cheesemakers take breaks swimming and fishing. At just...

Flora by Capriole Cheese
We introduced Capriole’s newest cheese in the summer of last year,
and figured this was a good time to revisit. Some of you may carry it now, but
others may have forgotten about it or not even noticed its launch. We’ve always
felt that Capriole makes some of the best soft ripened goat cheeses in the US,
and Flora stands up to expectations. If you are interested in receiving...
