A cave – aged beauty! This natural-rind variety gets its complex, sweet and slightly rambunctious flavors from open-air cave aging.
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.
This spicy hand-rubbed cheese packs a heated punch as you near the rind. Made from the milk of local Jersey cows in Northern Utah, the combination of sweet creaminess and spice make it a great addition to any cheese plate. Quality IngredientsThe spice is right! Our Cajun rub was developed by local Ogden, UT chef John Dearmin using only the finest ingredients. Unlike typical Cajun rub, Big John uses cayenne pepper instead of paprika. Sorry, the rest of the recipe is top secret. The spiciness of the rub is a nice compliment to the creamy texture of the cheese. Watch out, this cheese packs a heated punch as you near the rind. Pairing Suggestions Medium to full-bodied red wines, Champagne, or a fruity wheat beer. Chutney, preserves, shaved on a salad or melted over a burger with avacado.
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!
Wisconsin`s only cave-aged Cheddar, this variety has a creamy color and distinctive rind that develops in the open-air cave, where natural molds flourish and add beautiful character to the cheese. Sid says its earthy flavor is reminiscent of the cheese his family made more than 100 years ago.
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.
