This Week's Tasting: February 13, 2018

Every week at Dairymaids we select six cheeses to include in our free cheese tasting. Whenever we are open, we are tasting cheese. We stock over 150!

Moolicious is a natural-rinded, raw cow's milk blue from Bleating Heart in California. Bleating Heart sources Jersey cow's milk from the small herd that grazes next to the creamery. This robust blue reflects the unique taste of the grass and soil of the farm beside their dairy.

We'll also be sampling:

Coeur de la Crème, a heart-shaped, fresh goat's milk cheese from the Baetje Farms in Missouri. 

Little Hosmer, a new cow's milk brie from the Jasper Hill Creamery in Vermont.

Latte da Cotswold, an aged goat's milk cheese flavored with onion and chive, per English tradition, at the Latte da Dairy in Flower Mound, Texas.

Porta Rocca, an aged, semi-firm buffalo's milk cheese from Quattro Portoni in Italy.

Roelli Haus Select, a cow's milk cheddar from Roelli Cheese in Wisconsin.

Our wine of the week is a Riesling from Villa Wolf in the Pfalz Region of Germany. It has a medium body and a balanced acidity with notes of peach and apricot. We taste wine from 10am to 2pm on Saturdays.

Our pairing of the week is Acacia Honey with Apricots and Almonds from David Palluda in Italy.
