GOUDA WITH BASIL AND GARLIC, COWS MILK, HOLLAND
Gouda cheeses (pronounced “HOW-da” in their homeland) are prized for their approachable flavor and smooth texture. The technique of “washing” or rinsing the newly formed cheese curds during the cheesemaking process results in the mild sweet flavor of the finished wheel. Flavored gouda cheeses are very popular amongst the locals, and The Basil Garlic version lends an Italian flair to this Dutch classic.

DOUBLE GLOUCESTER, COWS MILK, ENGLAND
The British Isles are renowned for their high-quality cheeses and dairy products that spring forth from the verdant grass rich pastures that make up much of their countryside. Based on the traditional English Cotswold cheese recipe, our smooth and buttery Double Gloucester ( “double” meaning that it is produced from whole rather than skimmed milk) is made using farm fresh milk and is flavored with dried chives and spring onions for a zesty touch.

SAGE DERBY , COWS MILK, ENGLAND
A traditional English cheese whose roots trace back to the village of Derbyshire as early as the 17th century, Sage Derby is always a welcome addition to any cheese board. The addition of dried sage lends an earthy flavor note to this creamy and smooth cheese.

CARAMELIZED ONION AND BALSAMIC CHEDDAR, COWS MILK, ENGLAND
Cheddar is not one specific cheese, but rather a technique (“cheddaring”) that can result in a wide variety of cheese styles and flavors, rather than just the sharp crumbly version that we typically associate with the name. Smooth textured and savory, this full flavored cheese is a guaranteed favorite due to the addition of sweet caramelized onions that are cooked in just the right amount of tangy aged balsamic vinegar.

DANISH CREAM HAVARTI, COWS MILK, DENMARK
Originally called “Danish Tilsiter’ upon its introduction in the 1920's, Cream Havarti is prized for its buttery flavor and creamy semi-soft texture and is the perfect cheese for any get together.

The rigorous and exacting standard for Havarti production in Denmark has earned it a place as one of only twelve cheeses in the world recognized by the Codex Alimentarius; an industry guide of internationally recognized quality standards published by the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations.

PAULUS ABBEY BEER CHEESE, COWS MILK, HOLLAND
This savory aged gouda is flavored with a local dark beer that is produced using a recipe from the 1500’s that was created at Holland's historic Paulus Abbey. The cheesemakers incorporate the fruity and robust beer into the firm and nutty aged cheese to produce a one of a kind Dutch original.

BELLAVITANO MERLOT, COWS MILK, USA
From the great cheese and dairy producing state of Wisconsin, Bellavitano Merlot can trace its production roots back to Italian cheese artisans over a century ago. Handcrafted by Certified Master Cheesemakers, the Bellavitano line of cheeses are cave aged to perfection in the pastoral Wisconsin countryside. The flavors are reminiscent of well-aged Italian cheeses such as Parmigiano Reggiano and Asiago. The finished cheese is then bathed in Merlot wine, and its aromatic purple rind is edible and delicious. Winner of countless awards over the years by the American Cheese Society and The World Cheese Awards.

MOLITERNO AL TARTUFO, SHEEPS MILK, SARDINIA
Named for the town of the same name where the company first marketed their high-quality Sardinian pecorinos, Moliterno cheeses are instantly recognized by the basket-weave pattern rinds, created by the molds that initially form the cheeses. The best Moliternos are then injected with black truffle paste, and further aged to integrate the luxurious truffle flavor with the rich texture and robust flavors of the cheese. Bronze Winner 2013-2014, Silver Winner 2014-2015, and Super Gold 2015-2016 , at the World Cheese Awards.
