1st PLACE RUBBED RIND CHEESE – AMERICAN CHEESE SOCIETY AWARDS 2023
This is a full bodied cheese with a nutty flavor and smooth texture. The cheese is hand rubbed with a Turkish grind of Colorado Legacy Coffee Company`s (The Cheesemakers brother) `Beehive Blend`. The blend consists of a mix of South American, Central American, and Indonesian beans roasted to different styles. French Superior Lavender buds are ground with the coffee and the mixture is diluted with oil to suspend the dry ingredients in the rub. The rub imparts notes of butterscotch and caramel which are prevalent near the rind, but find their way to the center of the cheese. The cheese is aged on Utah Blue Spruce aging racks in our humidity controlled caves, and moved to different temperature during the aging process to develop texture and flavor. The name `Barely Buzzed` comes from Andrea at Deluxe Foods in California. She was the winner of the name this cheese contest. Awards – 1st Place, American Cheese Society Annual Competition 2007, 2008, 2009 and 2011.
A six-month aging period produces a mild, crumbly texture for the Stella Medium Asiago Cheese. This Asiago Cheese has a toasted, sweet and buttery flavor, and the color has aged to a pale beige.
The extra-long aging of the 12-month Stella Aged Asiago Cheese renders a robust, sharp cheese with a complex, nutty flavor and mature yellow color. The texture is firm and crumbly.
The distinct and unexpected marriage of lavender and hand-harvested wild fennel pollen makes Purple Haze® utterly addictive — and unforgettable. We use the finest ingredients we can get our hands on, and always start with the highest quality milk — the building block for our entire line of cheese.
In Finland there is a cheese called Juustoleipa. This translates into cheese bread. We make ours different but better with oven baking it until it has a browned crusty top. Pop it in your oven or microwave until it glistens. Serve it with your favorite dip as a delicious snack. Good as is!
Made with sheep, goat and cow milk, in 3 lb. balls, it is aged two years and cut into wedges. Its flavor is complex, pleasing and has a nutty finish.
