This Week's Tasting: March 26, 2019

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!

Harbison is a bloomy-rinded cow's milk cheese from Cellars at Jasper Hill in Vermont. This cheese is wrapped in bark from the woods around the farm, giving it a woodsy flavor and striking presentation. Serve Harbison by cutting off the top and scooping spoonfuls of the rich, creamy cheese hidden inside.

Also on our tasting plate this week:

St. Pat, a cow's milk double-cream brie covered in nettles, made by Cowgirl Creamery in California.

Baby Caprino, a soft-ripened goat's milk cheese made locally in Blanco, Texas, at CKC Farms.

Patacabra, a washed-rind goat's milk cheese whose name translates to "leg of the goat," made in Spain

Appleby's Cheshire, a raw cow's milk Cheshire-style from the Appleby Family in the United Kingdom.

Durrus, a cow's milk washed-rind cheese from cheesemaker Jeffa Gill in Cork County, Ireland

Quesuco Ahumado, a smoked cow's milk cheese made by Juan Carlos and Maria Carmen in Cantabria, Spain.

Organic Blue, a certified organic, cow's milk blue from the Roth Kase cheesemakers in Wisconsin.

Our wine of the week is a Viognier from Calera in California. We taste wine from 10am to 2pm on Saturdays.

We're also sampling Bartlett Pear Preserves from American Spoon in Michigan.
