SEASONAL SPECIALS
Vacherin Mont D'Or is an exquisite washed-rind cow's milk cheese from the Jura mountains in France. It is only made during the winter months when the cows come down from the mountain pastures. The cows are kept undercover and fed only hay. It is presented in a spruce box, that keeps the cheese from oozing all over the place. Premium hand washed unpasteurized Mont D'Or is available from the end of November until the end of January. Reservations are required for this particular cheese. We start taking reservations in early September.
Taleggio
Semi-soft, washed rind, smear ripened cheese that is named after Val Taleggio. Often referred to as Italian Brie. The cheese has a thin crust and a strong aroma, but its flavour is comparatively mild with an unusual fruity tang. This cheese has been around since the Roman times, with Cicero, Cato the Elder, and Pliny the Elder all mentioning it in their writings. Solely produced in Val Taleggio until the late 1800s when some production moved to the Lombardy plain to the south
