Award-Winning Cow's Milk Brie, 5oz
Highlighting the best of American artisan brie-styles, we'll select what is seasonally available and tasting its best. You'll be receiving a pasteurized, bloomy-rind cow milk cheese with notes of white button mushrooms, grass-fed butter, crème fraiche, cauliflower, and baked bread. This cheese category is a crowd-pleaser and pairs wonderfully with Sauvignon Blanc, Chardonnay, Chenin Blanc, Riesling, and Sparkling Brut.
Award-Winning Cow's Milk Natural Rind, 6oz
One of our favorite table cheeses, a natural rind style has an edible, ruddy rind with notes of buttermilk, brown butter, cured meat, nuts, and brown mushroom. Semi-firm and aged a minimum of two months, we'll hand select what is seasonally available and tasting its best. Pairs beautifully with a Chardonnay or Pinot Noir.
Award-Winning Cow's Milk Clothbound Cheddar, 6oz
Clothbound cheddars have become a distinguished American cheese category. Unlike their block cheddar counterparts that are sealed in wax or plastic, the milled curd is carefully wrapped in cheesecloth and then brushed with butter. Clothbound cheddars boasts flavors of bright pineapple and lemon curd, roasted nuts, caramel, and olives with a minerality closer to the rind. We'll select the best tasting wheel we have for this gift set. Pair with a light to medium-bodied red with low tannins, such as Pinot Noir, Merlot, Cabernet Franc or Syrah.
Dequmana Mixed Olives with Herbs
Unlike other olives on the market, this elegantly designed line of Spanish olives is cured the natural and traditional way with just water and salt. The olives are hand harvested and processed in small batches in barrels to ensure the highest quality product. No dyes, preservatives or overwhelming vinegar to get in the way of your taste buds. These mixed olives with herbs is a perfect combination of hojiblanca, gordal, cuquillo, and arbequina olives, herbs and natural red pepper following a traditional recipe used in Andalucian homes each year upon the arrival of the harvest.
Olina's Crackers
These deliciously thin crackers are made in Australia, from wheat flower and a touch of umami-rich cheese, making them an excellent match for your at-home cheese tasting experience.
