Coming Soon!

Coming Friday - a new Farmestead US Cheese MouCo ColoRouge. This is a natural rind cheese that is mostly redish-orange in color, with a slight white hazing. They start with pasteurized whole milk, then the cheese is ladeled by hand into forms that give the ceese its shape and size. During the two week aging period, the cheese is turned and "smeared" by hande - this is a process by which each cheese is rubbed by hand to help in the development of the special rind characteristics. The cheese is then wrapped in a special foil imported from Europe that allows it to "breathe", keeping the cheese "alive" and fresh during the entire shelf life. The flavor changes as it ages. Soft and reamy with mild buttery overtones give way to complex spicy tone and furthering depths of complexity. Nicely sized at 5.3oz wheels.
