Rogue Creamery Smokey Blue — Central Point, Oregon, Priced Per Ounce

Smokey Blue is one of America’s most celebrated artisan cheeses — and one of the most original. Handcrafted at Rogue Creamery in Central Point, Oregon from rBGH-free cow’s milk, it begins as a classic Oregon blue before undergoing something extraordinary: 16 hours of cold-smoking over local hazelnut shells. The result is a cheese unlike any other — deeply savory, subtly sweet, and layered with a distinctive smoky finish that lingers long after the last bite. It has earned a World Cheese Award and a devoted following among chefs and cheese lovers across the country.

The paste is velvety and rich with bold blue veining throughout. On the palate, the characteristic tang and earthiness of blue cheese is beautifully tempered by the gentle sweetness of hazelnut smoke, creating a complex, harmonious flavor that is simultaneously bold and approachable. The finish is long, smoky, and deeply satisfying.

Fromagerie l'Amuse / Essex Street Cheese | Signature Gouda | 2 Year | Netherlands | 8oz

Betty Koster founded Fromagerie l’Amuse in Amsterdam in 1989, and over the decades built one of the most respected cheese shops in the world — a destination for serious aficionados seeking rare, small-production Dutch gems that never make it to the export market. Her deep, long-term relationships with Dutch farmers, cheesemakers, and opleggers (affineurs) give her access to cheeses most Americans will never encounter. A select few of those cheeses she exports exclusively to the US through Essex Street Cheese, and the Signature Gouda is the crown jewel of that collaboration. Aged a minimum of two years, it develops the firm, crystalline paste and the deep caramel, butterscotch, and toasted nut complexity that define great aged Gouda at its peak. Rich, savory, and utterly distinctive — a benchmark by which other aged Goudas are measured.

• Producer: Fromagerie l’Amuse / Essex Street Cheese
• Affineur: Betty Koster
• Origin: Netherlands
• Type: Aged Gouda
• Age: 2 years minimum
• Format: 8oz
• Texture: Firm, crystalline
• Flavor: Caramel, butterscotch, toasted nuts
• Best For: Cheese boards, gifting, entertaining

Pairing Suggestions

Exceptional on a cheese board alongside dark honey, candied walnuts, dried apricots, and charcuterie. Pairs beautifully with Amontillado Sherry, aged Riesling, Tawny Port, or a malty craft beer.

Bliss.  Pure, unadulterated bliss.  Yes, we're talking about a butter, but the RLM Beurre de Baratte is a butter like no other.  Smooth, creamy and sweet with big chunks to salt.  It's a cheat code to melt into pasta, atop grilled proteins or in popcorn, but seriously, all you really need is a spoon.  

Pair it with a Jura Chardonnay (yeah, really!)

Jasper Hill Farm — Sherry Gray — Greensboro, Vermont

Sherry Gray is an emblem of Vermont cheesemaking ingenuity — and one of the most original American cheeses being made today. Jasper Hill took two disparate French traditions and fused them into something entirely their own: a double-cream Brie ripened in ash, where the Loire Valley meets the Brie de Meaux. The ash coating is not merely aesthetic; it tempers the surface pH of the fresh wheel and fosters the development of a thin, even bloom of flora that gives Sherry Gray its distinctive stony complexion and complex rind character. The extra cream and a relatively long culturing time create an almost whipped interior texture that coats the palate in buttery richness. 7oz wheel.

The paste is silky and yielding, with a texture that borders on mousse — rich, luscious, and deeply satisfying. The flavor is buttery and smooth up front, with earthy, mushroomy notes from the bloomy rind and a gentle, approachable finish that never overwhelms. It is the kind of cheese that disappears from the board before anything else does. Pair it with your favorite sparkling wine and let it do the rest.

Martin Johnson, Cheesemonger, 67Gourmet — "Buttery, smooth and earthy, Sherry Gray is an emblem of Vermont cheesemaking ingenuity. It’s a double cream Brie, ripened in ash — the Loire Valley meets Brie. What results is a creamy cheese with an approachable finish."

• Producer: Jasper Hill Farm, Greensboro, Vermont, USA
• Milk: Pasteurized cow’s milk & cream
• Style: Double-cream bloomy rind, ashed
• Rind: Ashed bloomy rind
• Format: 7oz wheel
• Tasting Notes: Buttery, silky, mushroomy, earthy rind, whipped texture, approachable finish
• Allergens: Contains milk
• Best Paired With: Champagne, Crémant, Pet Nat, dry rosé, honeycomb, sliced pear, toasted baguette, marcona almonds

The Loire Valley meets Brie de Meaux — made in Vermont, and better for it.

"Vermonters typically have better things to do with time than imitate European cheese traditions; instead, they innovate on them. Lazy Lady Thin Red Line is a great example — a Loire Valley-style ashen pyramid of creamy goat cheese (that's very French), bisected by a layer of smoked paprika (that's very Vermont). Pair it with your favorite summery white wine." — Martin Johnson, Cheesemonger | 67Gourmet

One of the most visually striking and flavor-forward cheeses in the American artisan canon. The 'thin red line' of smoked paprika cuts through the center of this bloomy-rind pyramid, delivering a flavor that is equal parts fresh chèvre and chorizo — creamy, tangy, sweet and subtly smoky all at once.

Tasting Notes

• Appearance: Loire-style ashen pyramid with a striking red paprika line through the center
• Texture: Creamy and luscious beneath a delicate bloomy rind
• Flavor: Fresh chèvre tang meets sweet, smoky paprika — a hybrid of goat cheese and chorizo
• Finish: Tongue-tingling sweet spice with a clean, bright finish

Farm Notes

• Farm: Lazy Lady Farm, Vermont
• Milk: 100% goat's milk
• Style: Bloomy rind pyramid, Loire Valley-inspired
• The Red Line: A dusting of smoked paprika — eye-catching contrast and tongue-tingling sweet spice
• Sustainability: 100% off-grid farm powered by solar and wind energy
• Origin: Vermont, USA

Pairing Suggestions

• Wine: Summery whites — Sancerre, Pouilly-Fumé, Albariño, dry Rosé
• Crackers: Knekkebrød, water crackers, or seeded flatbreads
• Accompaniments: Honey, fig jam, Marcona almonds, fresh herbs
• Board: A showstopper centerpiece for any cheese board

Lazy Lady Farm is one of Vermont's most celebrated artisan creameries — a true off-grid operation run with passion, creativity, and a distinctly Vermont spirit. Thin Red Line has quickly become one of their most beloved and iconic cheeses.

Pasteurized milk, vinegar, enzymes, salt. Contains milk.

We are proud to be a family-owned company supported by the Southern New England community we belong to.  

Is it a cheddar or a Gruyere?  

The answer is both!  It's a cheddar highlighted by savor and sharp flavors, but this unique Vermonter is made with some Gruyere cheese culture which yields sweet, nutty overtones too.  It melts beautifully and pairs with your favorite red wines.

Fulvi Pecorino Romano del Lazio DOP — Nepi, Lazio, Italy

Fulvi is the benchmark for what Pecorino Romano was always meant to be — and it is categorically different from the mass-produced versions most people know. Made from 100% whole, unpasteurized sheep’s milk collected from Sopravissana and Siciliana breed flocks in the Roman countryside, and produced in Nepi just 15 miles north of Rome, this is an ancient cheese with an unbroken lineage. Aged a minimum of 10 to 12 months and coated in traditional black wax, Fulvi carries the DOP designation that guarantees its Lazio origin and production standards. The key distinction: Fulvi uses whole milk, not skimmed — giving it a higher butterfat content, a less dry texture, and a less aggressive saltiness than Sardinian Pecorino Romano. The result is a cheese that is rich, complex, and deeply versatile: magnificent grated over pasta, and equally rewarding eaten as is.

The paste is ivory-white and semi-firm with a dense, slightly granular texture that yields to a long, savory finish. The aroma is sheepy and pastoral, with a warm nuttiness and a gentle tang. The flavor is full and rounded — bold enough to stand up to a rich ragù, refined enough to eat with honey and a glass of Frascati.

• Producer: Fulvi, Nepi, Lazio, Italy
• Certification: Pecorino Romano DOP
• Milk Type: Whole, unpasteurized sheep’s milk (Sopravissana & Siciliana breeds)
• Style: Semi-firm, black wax coated, aged
• Aging: Minimum 10–12 months
• Size: 7oz
• Tasting Notes: Ivory paste, sheepy aroma, warm nuttiness, gentle tang, full savory flavor, long finish
• Best Paired With: Pasta all’Amatriciana, Cacio e Pepe, grilled lamb, honey, crusty bread, Frascati, or a medium-bodied Italian red

Ancient craft, Lazio terroir, whole milk integrity — Fulvi’s Pecorino Romano DOP is the benchmark for what this storied Italian cheese can truly be.

Feta Voras is made in the far Northwestern corner of Greece, in the province of Florina. This is mountainous land, covered in wildflowers and herbs.

It’s about as far away from the island of Lesbos and M. Tastanis’s feta as you can get and still be in Greece, but the cheese is still proper feta, recognized with the PDO protected status for traditional feta.

The small third generation firm, run by brothers Andreas and Sokratis, makes a creamy, crumbly cheese that you’ll want as a staple in your home. 

Milk from cows not treated with rbST (No significant difference has been shown between milk derived from rbST-treated and non-rbST-treated cows). Our Camembert is made in Normandy, the birthplace of traditional Camembert. Thanks to our unique know-how and craft, our Camembert has a earthly flavor and a silky texture, a cheese to enjoy at room temperature with your favorite wine and bread, a la francaise. Made in Normandy. Product of France.

Lush, buttery and sumptuous in the very best way, this Swiss delight offers melt on your tongue goodness. 

Jasper Hill Farm Willoughby | Washed Rind | Vermont | 8 oz

Willoughby is one of the most approachable washed-rind cheeses made in America — and Jasper Hill Farm, tucked into Vermont's Northeast Kingdom, is one of the most important artisan creameries in the country. Named after the pristine lake nearby, Willoughby is made from the milk of Jasper Hill's own Ayrshire cows, washed with brine to develop its characteristic rosy rind and that signature, gently funky aroma.

Inside, the paste is fudgy, smooth, and almost molten near the rind — rich and buttery, with a complexity that belies its mild demeanor. The funk is real but restrained: pleasantly dank rather than aggressive, making it the ideal entry point for anyone curious about washed rinds.

"Fudgy, pleasantly dank, and smooth in texture, this complex Vermonter comes from Jasper Hill, the great Northeast Kingdom cheesemakers. Its slight funk makes it the perfect gateway cheese for novices new to washed rind aromas. Pair it with your favorite Chenin Blanc or Vouvray."
— Martin Johnson, Cheesemonger 67 Gourmet.

• Producer: Jasper Hill Farm, Greensboro, Vermont
• Style: Washed rind, soft-ripened
• Milk: Pasteurized cow's milk (Ayrshire)
• Size: 8 oz
• Best With: Chenin Blanc, Vouvray, dry cider, crusty bread, honey, charcuterie

Classic English Cheddar is an entirely different experience than American cheddar.  These clothbound cheeses are dense and complex, highlighted by distinctive overtones of horseradish and mustard.  The Montgomery's is as classic as it comes; it's from Somerset County, home of a village called Cheddar, where the stuff was invented a long, long time ago.  

Pair with your favorite Bourbon.

Firefly Farms Merry Goat Round — Accident, Maryland

The Merry Goat Round is Firefly Farms’ best-selling retail cheese — and it earns that distinction every time. Made in the Appalachian highlands of Garrett County, Maryland, Firefly Farms has been crafting award-winning artisan goat cheeses since 2002, drawing on the clean mountain air and pastoral landscape that define this corner of the mid-Atlantic. The Merry Goat Round is a soft-ripened chèvre with a bloomy, fully edible rind that develops beautifully at every stage of ripening. The texture is supple and impossibly creamy, the flavor is clean and bright, and the rind — as Firefly will tell you — is where the fullest, most complex flavor is concentrated. Chefs, caterers, and cheese lovers agree: this one deserves a giant round of applause.

The paste is snow-white and lush, with a fresh, clean goat’s milk character that is tangy without being sharp. As it ripens, the rind softens and the interior becomes increasingly supple and complex, developing earthy, mushroom-laced depth that contrasts beautifully with the bright, citrusy core. Bake it at 350°F until soft and smother it in honey — it transforms into something extraordinary.

Little secret: the fullest flavor is concentrated in the rind. Eat every bit of it. — Firefly Farms

• Producer: Firefly Farms, Accident, Garrett County, Maryland, USA
• Milk Type: Goat’s milk
• Style: Soft-ripened, bloomy rind chèvre
• Size: 6oz
• Tasting Notes: Snow-white paste, clean tangy goat’s milk, earthy bloomy rind, mushroom, bright citrus core, creamy finish
• Best Paired With: Baked with honey or apricot jam, sliced apple and baguette, dried fruits, candied nuts, dry Riesling, or Sauvignon Blanc

Appalachian craft, award-winning character — Firefly Farms’ Merry Goat Round is the benchmark for what American artisan goat cheese can be.

Rodolphe Le Meunier | Tommette Brûlée | Basque Sheep's Milk Cheese | France | Priced per ounce

There are many semi-firm sheep's milk cheeses from the mountainous Basque country of southern France, but Tommette Brûlée is something apart. Several small dairies produce the little wheels, draining them for a few days before they are collected and brought to the cellars of famed affineur Rodolphe Le Meunier for further aging. There, the wheels are cleaned and turned for three to four months to ensure even, unhurried maturation.

Once the Tommette reaches ideal ripeness, Rodolphe's team torches the rind — adding a touch of caramelized sweetness and a burnished, deeply appealing exterior. The result is irresistible: silky, yielding paste with flavors of roasted cashews, brown butter, and tortilla chips, wrapped in a rind that carries the faintest whisper of smoke and caramel.

Melt slices over toast for a deeply comforting snack, or drizzle cubes with honey and peppery olive oil for an addictive appetizer. Either way, it disappears fast.

• Origin: Basque Country, France
• Milk: Sheep's milk, semi-firm
• Affineur: Rodolphe Le Meunier
• Aging: 3–4 months, torch-finished rind
• Flavor: Roasted cashews, brown butter, tortilla chips, caramel
• Pricing: Per ounce
• Pairs with: Honey, peppery olive oil, toasted bread, Basque cider, dry rosé, aged Rioja

A luxurious French churned butter from Rodolphe le Meunier, Meilleur Ouvrier de France, finished with delicate seaweed for a savory, ocean-kissed flavor. Rich, creamy, and beautifully balanced, this compound butter brings a subtle briny depth that makes simple food feel instantly elevated.

Spread over warm Sullivan Street Bakery bread, melt onto grilled fish or seafood, finish roasted vegetables, or use as a quick upgrade for potatoes, rice, pasta, or steak. Elegant, deeply flavorful, and ready to serve.

Approx. 8 oz.
Perfect with: crusty bread, oysters, lobster, scallops, grilled fish, roasted vegetables, and dry white Bordeaux.

Grafton Village “Shepsog” — Cave-Aged Cow & Sheep Milk Cheese, Vermont

Grafton Village Cheese Company has been one of Vermont’s most celebrated artisan cheesemakers since 1892, and Shepsog is their most intriguing and complex creation. The name is a portmanteau of “sheep” and “dog” — a nod to the pastoral Vermont tradition — and the cheese itself is equally playful and multifaceted. Made from thermized cow and sheep milk and cave-aged for 5 to 7 months, Shepsog is a firm cheese of remarkable personality: it draws simultaneously on the traditions of Basque sheep cheeses, Alpine styles, aged Cheddars, and aged Goudas, yet all of these influences cohere into something entirely its own — approachable, appealing, and endlessly interesting. Priced per ounce.

The texture is firm and smooth with the density that comes from careful cave aging. The flavor is layered and complex — nutty and slightly sweet from the sheep milk, with the savory depth of Alpine cheese, a hint of Cheddar tang, and the caramel richness of aged Gouda. Multiple personalities, all of them delicious. Pair with a Chenin Blanc, a Hazy IPA, or a glass of something sparkling.

Martin Johnson, 67 Wine — “This Vermont newcomer has multiple personality disorder in the very best way. It has characteristics of Basque sheep cheeses, Alpine cheeses, Cheddars, aged Goudas and several other styles, yet all of this coheres into an approachable, appealing firm cheese.”

• Producer: Grafton Village Cheese Company, Grafton, Vermont, USA
• Founded: 1892
• Milk: Thermized cow & sheep milk
• Aging: Cave-aged 5–7 months
• Texture: Firm
• Style: Basque / Alpine / Cheddar / Aged Gouda influences
• Pricing: Per ounce
• Best Paired With: Chenin Blanc, Hazy IPA, sparkling wine, charcuterie, honey, dried fruit, crusty bread

Five to seven months in the cave, 130 years of Vermont cheesemaking tradition — Grafton’s Shepsog is the cheese with multiple personalities and zero flaws.

Pipe Dreams Fromages Goat Bûche | Lancaster County, Pennsylvania | per ½ bûche

Pipe Dreams Fromages is doing something quietly extraordinary in Greencastle, Pennsylvania — channeling the spirit of the Loire Valley from the heart of Lancaster County. Their Goat Bûche is a classic ash-rolled log of fresh goat's milk cheese, made in the tradition of Sainte-Maure de Touraine: elegant, delicate, and unmistakably chèvre.

The ash coating gives the rind a striking appearance and a subtle mineral quality, while the interior paste is bright, creamy, and clean. As it ages, it develops a gentle earthiness and a more complex, herbal character — but at any stage, it's a cheese that rewards attention.

"A little bit of the Loire Valley in Greencastle, Pennsylvania, this ashen log of goat's milk cheese is creamy, herbal and a smidge earthy in the finish. Pair it with your favorite dry white wine or anything that sparkles."
— Martin Johnson, Cheesemonger. 67 Gourmet.

Rodolphe Le Meunier Fromage d'Ossau — Basque Region, Pyrénées, France

Rodolphe Le Meunier is one of France's most celebrated affineurs — a Meilleur Ouvrier de France (MOF), the highest honor in French craftsmanship, and a master of the art of cheese aging. Based in Tours, Le Meunier selects and ages cheeses from the finest producers across France, bringing each to its peak of expression through meticulous cellar work and an uncompromising commitment to quality. His Fromage d'Ossau is sourced from the Basque region of the French Pyrénées — one of the world's great sheep's milk cheese traditions, where flocks of Manech and Basco-Béarnaise ewes graze on mountain pastures to produce milk of extraordinary richness and character. Aged to perfection by Le Meunier, this is Ossau-Iraty at its finest.

The paste is firm and smooth with a natural rind. The flavor is rich, slightly sweet, and deeply satisfying — subtle overtones of herbs, honey, and butter, with the gentle, rounded character that defines the great Basque sheep's milk cheeses. Clean and lingering on the finish, with a warmth that speaks of mountain pastures and centuries of tradition.

"Basque sheep's milk cheeses are made throughout Europe and North America, but some of the best are either from or have roots in the Basque regions of France. The cheese from there is renowned for smooth, gentle flavors: subtle overtones of herbs, honey and butter. From France, we have Fromage d'Ossau, aged by Rodolphe Le Meunier — if you haven't tried his butter, you haven't lived." — Martin Johnson, Cheesemonger, 67 Gourmet

• Affineur: Rodolphe Le Meunier, MOF, Tours, France

Jasper Hill Farm — Withersbrook Blue — Greensboro, Vermont

Jasper Hill Farm sits on 1,200 acres in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont, one of the most remote and storied corners of American cheesemaking. The Kehler brothers built their underground Cellars here not just to age their own cheeses, but to create the infrastructure that would allow small Vermont farms to make world-class cheese. Withersbrook Blue is named for the winding forest brook that originates behind the creamery — a quiet, elemental detail that suits the cheese perfectly. Made from raw cow’s milk, it is aged for 60 days in the traditional cellar before being placed into a specialized pouch with a generous dose of Eden Ice Cider — a dessert cider made from apple juice naturally concentrated by Vermont’s freezing winter temperatures. The result is unlike any other blue in the case. Priced per ounce.

The paste is creamy and yielding, with bold blue veining and a flavor profile that moves from savory to sweet in a single bite. The raw milk brings depth and funk; the ice cider adds a honeyed apple sweetness and a gentle acidity that softens the blue’s edge without taming it. The finish is long, complex, and quietly extraordinary — the kind of cheese that makes people stop mid-conversation.

Jasper Hill Farm — "Withersbrook Blue is a raw milk blue named for a winding forest brook that originates behind our creamery. After 60 days of traditional cellar maturation, this cube is placed into a specialized pouch along with a healthy dose of Eden Ice Cider — a dessert cider made from apple juice naturally condensed by Vermont’s freezing winter temperatures."

One of Vermont’s most original blues — raw milk depth meets ice cider sweetness in a cheese that earns its place on any serious board.

Uplands Cheese in Wisconsin produces only two cheeses, and Pleasant Ridge Reserve is among the most decorated in American history. It has won three Best of Show awards from the American Cheese Society (2001, 2005, 2010) and the U.S. Championship Cheese Contest in 2003 — the only cheese ever to claim both major overall titles.

Made exclusively from the summer milk of pasture-raised cows, this alpine-style cheese is complex and deeply satisfying: lush, sweet, and fruity on the palate with an extraordinarily long finish. Priced per ounce.

Parmigiano Reggiano from Craver Giorgio Cravero’s family has selected and aged Parmigiano Reggiano in Bra, Italy since 1855.  Just off the main drag of the town of Bra, home to Slow Food’s biennial Cheese festival, lie the halls of Cravero. Twenty-foot high rooms that hold five thousand wheels of Parmigiano Reggiano. Cravero’s wheels rest on pine and they turn their wheels more frequently than other agers with an aim to
make a softer, less cakey texture.

Aging rooms like Cravero’s have long been a part of the cycle of making and selling Parmigiano Reggiano, much like they are for other long-aged cheeses like Comté and Gouda, cheeses whose lengthy affinage represents a real cash flow issue to farmers and cheesemakers.

This cheese, dating back to the 12th century, is famous throughout the world for its unique character and intense flavor. Serra da Estrela is a raw sheep’s milk cheese coagulated with thistle rennet. Two styles of the cheese are popular in Portugal ― buttery and rich, oozing once you cut into it, and more mature, firm, and pungent.
