This Week's Tasting: September 4, 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!

Latte Da Pepperjack is made by Anne Jones at the Latte Da Dairy in Flower Mound, Texas. The dairy owns and milks it's own small herd of goats. This particular cheese is Jones' take on an American pepperjack and is flavored wiht red pepper flakes. The pepper flakes give the cheese a slow-emerging spiciness that pairs well with its dry, crumbly texture.

Also on our tasting plate this week:

Green Hill, a Camembert-style brie from the Sweet Grass Dairy in Georgia.

Landaff, a traditional, raw cow's milk Caerphilly style from the Landaff Creamery in New Hampshire.

Willoughby, a double-cream, cow's milk washed-rind from the Cellars at Jasper Hill in Vermont.

Wrångebäck, a raw cow's milk Alpine-style from Almnas Bruk in Sweden.

Smokey Blue, a cow's milk blue cheese smoked over hazelnut shells at the Rogue Creamery in Oregon.

Our wine of the week is Rosé D'Anjou from Justin Monmousseau in France. We taste wine from 10am to 2pm on Saturdays.

We are also sampling Rhubarb Marmalade from American Spoon in Michigan
