This Week's Tasting: August 28, 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!

Tomme de Hood is a raw cow's milk, tomme-style from the Eagle Mountain Dairy in Lipan, Texas. It is modeled after a traditional French tomme and, like a French tomme, is named after the region where it is made: Hood County. Molded into a basket shape, Tomme de Hood is buttery and smooth with tangy, mushroomy flavors - a perfect pairing for both wine and beer.

 

Also on our tasting plate this week:

Nuvola di Pecora, a soft, sheep's milk cheese from Romagna, Italy.

Hook's Sheep Milk Cheddar, a cheddar made with sheep's milk by Hook's Cheese in Wisconsin.

Oma, a raw, cow's milk, washed-rind style from the Von Trapp Creamery in Vermont.

1655 Gruyere, a traditional, cave-aged, raw cow's milk Gruyere from Fromagerie Le Cret in Switzerland.

Glacier Blue, a raw cow's milk, natural-rinded blue from the Cascadia Creamery in Washington.

Our wine of the week is a Rosé from Villa Wolf in Germany. We taste wine from 10am to 2pm on Saturdays.

We are also sampling Strawberry Balsamic Jam from Garden Dreams in Houston.
