Gift 3 Months of Curated Artisan Cheese

Finally!  An award-winning cheese subscription fully customizable to your cheese preferences and allergies.  We'll curate an extraordinary, rotating selection of three American artisan cheeses per month (approx 1.5 pounds), with the option to add pairings and crackers.

By letting our experts select the cheeses in each delivery, you'll expand your palate, discover new favorites, and experience the best that American artisan cheesemakers have to offer. There are hundreds of artisan cheese producers in the United States and thousands of wheels to try.

Here's a pro tip for diving into our cheese subscription: Challenge yourself to try new cheeses and expand your palate! You may not have enjoyed goat cheese or funky cheeses like blues and washed rinds in the past, but you just might find some you love in your next subscription box.

With each shipment, we'll include a custom printed tasting guide with tips for creating the perfect food and beverage pairings with your selections.

We got you! Download this gift card and share with the lucky gift recipient! The size of the card is 5.5 inches by 4.5 inches so it can be formatted on a full-sized printer paper, or can be formatted to print double-sided!

• Bloomy rind, Washed rind, Natural rind, Waxed rind, Blue, Smoked, Herbed, Spiced, Cow cheese, Sheep cheese, Goat cheese (unless otherwise requested in our preferences section)

• What are funky cheeses? We call blue cheeses and washed rind cheeses “funky cheeses” because they are stronger in flavor and aroma.  

• What are flavored cheeses? We call cheeses infused with herbs, spices, and smoke “flavored cheeses” because the interior or exterior of the cheese has added flavor.

• The subscription includes three cheeses (1 to 1.5 pounds total) per shipment. The cheeses shipped are selected at optimal ripeness and best enjoyed within 2 to 3 weeks of delivery.

• One serving of cheese is anywhere from 2 to 4 ounces, depending on your appetite. This package is great for 6 to 12 servings over weeks of enjoyment.

• After signup, the gift recipient will have access to a subscription portal and can modify the order dates if needed. However, they won't be notified by us about the gift until the first shipment tracking is created. This is to ensure we don't spoil a gift by automatically letting them know (many folks preorder their gifts and don't want us to tell them before Christmas, for example!). Just make sure to enter in the recipient's name and address in the form above. You can also email us at info@cheesegrotto.com for assistance modifying your delivery week, and we'll respond within 3 business days.

• You will be billed once for the total subscription package. At the end of the pre-paid period of 3 months, you will receive an email asking if you would like to extend your subscription.

• The monthly subscription will be processed every 4 weeks, and the monthly order number will be generated in our system the Sunday prior to the week of shipping your order. 

• This is a one-time purchase that will not automatically renew after the prepaid period.

• Cancellations to a prepaid subscription must be made 2 business days before the first box on the prepaid plan ships. We offer prepaid subscriptions as a way to prepay & save, and so we do not offer partial cancellations or refunds once we have started to prepare your order. We do offer replacements for any damaged items in transit, of course!

• Express Shipping is included in the listed price, and most areas of the country have no additional shipping cost. However, a few areas in the country are still quite expensive to ship to from Ohio, so if you are located on the West Coast you may see a small surcharge for all 3 months at checkout. Your prepaid surcharge is based on your zip code.

• Unless requested, these are the following dates in which the subscription will be shipped:

Month One: Tuesday, April 8th, 2025

Month Two: Tuesday, May 6th, 2025

Month Three: Tuesday, June 10th, 2025

• Please visit our shipping policy page for additional questions.

If you choose to add crackers and 3 accompaniments to your subscription box, we will rotate and pair according to the featured cheeses each month and your allergy specifications.

According to the American Cheese Society, "artisan or artisanal implies that a cheese is produced primarily by hand, in small batches, with particular attention paid to the tradition of the cheesemaker’s art, and thus using as little mechanization as possible in the production of the cheese."

Over the past decade, the American artisan cheese community has been recognized internationally for its quality and integrity. Small to medium-scale artisan cheesemakers have a core set of values: High-quality milk makes incredible cheese, and high-quality land and animal management makes for incredible milk. In our industrial food system, committing to these core values requires long hours of hard work and strict attention to detail.

Our monthly subscription directly supports American artisan cheesemakers and the strengthening and diversification of our food system.
