Specialty Cheeses

A very hard, aged, dry version of fresh Monterey Jack – delicious and nutty.  Created by accident in 1915, a wholesaler found himself with an over-abundance of fresh Monterey Jack and had to store it for a long time. In order to protect it, he hand-salted each one of the cheeses, a few weeks later, he discovered that the cheeses were fruity and rich in taste. Perfect for cooking applications, grated onto pasta or salads.
