The Cheese Grotto is fantastic - it keeps my blocks of cheese fresher for longer periods of time, unwrapped in all their glory.
It really does extend the life of cheese over time. Aside from the functionality, the Cheese Grotto looks great and is easy to maintain.
The Cheese Grotto is a must have for anyone who loves cheese. Looks stunning and keeps all of your cheeses in perfect condition.
Great insulated packaging arrived with cold packs still partially frozen. My favorite aged cheese.
Excellent quality and service. Everyone was pleased with their gifts. Thank you.
Too good for words!
I ordered 2 more for the holidays.
We splurge once a year on very fine cheeses - the Rogue River Blue is regularly on the top of the list. It arrived in excellent condition, taste, texture, and aroma, all sublime. Rave reviews/comments from our friends (they seem very willing to appear for a cheese and wine gathering, hum....) Thanks to the folks at the Cheese Grotto for making such wonderful wedges available. cheers, Fred
I will always buy this cheese. It’s one of my favorites and has been for years! Take it out of the fridge about an hour before serving it so it’s room temperature and super creamy when serving. It’s really good on apple slices or on crackers. I sometimes eat it on Triscuits and the added salt is soooo good with the woody flavor of the cheese. 10/10

Great cheese
A great gift that everyone enjoyed… thanks!
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.
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.
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.
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.
Outstanding customer service: prompt, responsive, and helpful communication about products and shipping. I appreciate the professionally packed: no small feat in order to get perishables clear across the country; shipping information and links promptly emailed so I can keep an eye on delivery status.

Cheese delivered cold, with cold packs.
Delicious and still cold
I look forward to this cheese every year. It is a show-stopper on any cheeseboard and its pairings-- don't even get me started! This cheese is my excuse to keep potato chips in the house. It is so good, I have to ship my parents a wheel as well each season! Cannot wait to dig into a wheel this year.
This is heavenly… oozy and creamy as soon as it is tempered, unlike supermarket varieties. I purchased this at Lakewood Winery (I think! We visited several that day) and I regret not buying several! Obviously I’m online looking for more…
Though I'm not a fan of stinky cheese, I purchased this package for a small, socially-distanced cheese night with some friends. The Appalachian and Mountaineer were "crowd" favorites. They're absolutely delectable. Even the Mini-Grayson found its small fan club. I will definitely be buying this again!
We couldn't resist and ate everything last night. Insanely yummy! The Cooper Creek was our favorite! It paired so well with the pears and salami we had. <3
I loved these three cheeses! The clothbound cheddar pairs so well with dark chocolate. Would buy again!
I’m not one for stinky cheeses, so when initially plating, Foxglove was daunting. However, after pairing it with some of the suggested foods from the pairing literature, I think I’m in love! This set was complex, creamy, and worth every penny!
This cheese was super creamy! We followed all of the pairing literature, made sure to let it temper at room temp before serving, and it was so delicious!
This is the best goat cheese I've ever had! If you like goat cheese and hard cheese this is for you. The pairing notes were amazing also!
I really enjoyed this selection.
We're so glad, thank you!
Cheese delivery arrived in excellent condition! It tastes wonderful,
Thank You
