Jasper Hill Farm | Alpha Tolman Cheese

$38.00
off
We love Alpha Tolman by Jasper Hill Farm.  Made with a proprietary blend of cultures, this "Mountain Cheese" (also known as Alpine Cheese) has a similar flavor profile to Gruyère AOP and Appenzeller. Alpha Tolman has a buttery, fruit & nut flavor when young, developing bold meaty, caramelized onion flavors as it matures. The texture is dense and pliant, easily portioned and ideal for melting. Received a Super Gold Award at the 2012 World Cheese Awards.

    About the Producer

    Jasper Hill Farm is one of the leaders of the artisanal cheese movement in America. They produce finely crafted cheeses from their small herd of Ayrshire cows, and they age a variety of Vermont cheesemakers’ cheeses in their seven underground vaults. The company excels at cheese affinage, making for consistently delicious artisanal styles.

    Serving Suggestions

    Pair this with a robust ale, Pinot Noir, or Blake Hill Preserves French Onion Preserve. Shave onto a fennel, apple, and walnut salad. Melt it for fondue or onto a plate of fingerling potatoes, cured meat and natural sour pickles. Excellent decadent grilled cheese contender.

    The Cheese Grotto is fantastic - it keeps my blocks of cheese fresher for longer periods of time, unwrapped in all their glory.

    CK, Cheese Grotto Classico Owner

    It really does extend the life of cheese over time. Aside from the functionality, the Cheese Grotto looks great and is easy to maintain.

    Creamy flavorful

    I’ve heard about the wonderfulness of Harbison, so when I had the change ordered a couple small wheels - it lives up to it’s reputation - creamy, flavorful, totally enjoyable.

    Wagyu and More!

    I recently received my Cheese Grotto selections of Wagyu Bresaola, Wild Rosemary from Goat Rodeo, Marin French Cheese Petite Camembert and Sour Cherry Pomegranate Conserve. At a small dinner party they were so popular I worried guests would want to skip dinner and just dwell on the charcuterie offerings! It was wonderful to have a unique goat cheese offering for my guest who limits dairy. The conserve has enhanced meat, cheese, and bread at my table. I recommend all of these items from Cheese Grotto.

    Chocolates

    While the service accommodations were awesome and the chocolates were divine, they were much smaller than expected. I am not sure I could afford them again given the size of the chocolates with that price.

    Well balanced cheddar

    I’ve been enjoying this with flax and poppy seed crackers. Not too sharp and has a subtle nutty flavor that the crackers being out.

    Lisa, we love this cheddar so much haha! We're so happy you also enjoy it, it is wonderfully complex and nuanced without being too aggressive. And the flavor just lasts and lasts.
