Carmelis
Lets describe this like a symphony in the mouth. It begins with this rich creamy sweet pear note. Building in your mouth until it covers every surface. With a sudden explosion of flavor you are in the
land of acidic goat cheese. A bit of an overwhelming finish to such a wonderful young goat cheese. Reminds me so much of one of my favorite goats from Rolling Stone called Brandywine. Not ready for the explosion? just give it a month.

Ancient Heritage Dairy
Nestled between the foothills of the Oregon Cascade Mountains and the fertile Willamette Valley. Their motto, “Raised with respect, nourished to nourish you”, says it all. Finding the best ways to get the most out of each ewe, from sustainable and organic feeding to not using hormones or drugs to boost production. The cheese… Dense, creamy curd that melts in your mouth to reveal a rich meatiness.
Reminds me of a young Stilton in many ways.

Moonstruck Organic Cheese
Reminds me of the days when Chef had to have a farm. BARNYARD! Soft and creamy with just the right amount of blue accented by, of course, alfalfa and fresh hay.
