Barely Buzzed is an artisanal cheese hand-crafted by Tim Welsh and Pat Ford of the Beehive Cheese Company in Utah. Tim and Pat were brothers-in-law before leaving corporate jobs to team up and make cheese. The base cheese is their signature “Utah Cheddar”. The wheel is then rubbed with ground espresso and lavender oil. The rub adds notes of butterscotch and caramel that are prevalent close to the rind, but find their way to the center of the cheese.
Fourth generation cheesemaker Javier and his wife make this teardrop shaped cheese in their home in Lugo, Galicia, which also doubles as a cheese plant. It’s a tiny operation with only 4 employes, and the care with which this award-winning cheese is made shows. Javier waits until the end of the process to smoke the cheese with birch wood for up to 90 minutes. It develops a lovely caramel colored exterior, a golden interior with tiny eyes and a subtle smoked flavor. Javier says the aroma reminds his customers of a time gone by, when their food was cooked over a wood-fired flame. We couldn’t agree more.
