Anthony Bonner Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 "Just down the aisle from Saxelby is the Essex St. Cheese Co., an alcove where Daphne Zepos, a consultant at the Artisanal Premium Cheese, and Jason Hinds, who sells cheese in London, carry only French Comté aged up to about 16 months. It is a richly complex, nutty-flavored mountain cheese that the two select from caves in eastern France. The cheese, in wheels that weigh nearly 80 pounds, is sold by the piece at $14.99 a pound." The interwebs tell me they pivoted to importer/wholesaler Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Whenever the Scotch Boutique is mentioned, it brings up fond memories of this actual place...which was an actual place. A little pencil shop on the Lower East Side, NYC Thank you for visiting this website, which is the new home of CW Pencil Enterprise, a lovely little pencil shop that existed in New York City until November 2021.

Wilfrid Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 This is by definition the wrong thread, but I was just reading about Limburger and I’m not sure I’ve ever tried it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
small h Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 Cato Corners Gossamer, a bloomy rind cheese. It is excellent, delicate and a little sticky. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I've had Herve cheese at Hof van Cleve. Of course there was no way I wasn't going to take it given the swarm of flies above it. Very stinky but very good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Behemoth Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 Completely obsessed with this cheese. It was offered by my CSA - aged 24 months, 50% fat from hay-fed cows. Produced by a farm near Murnau (about an hour and 20 minutes southwest of Munich). Crumbly with salt cristals, reminiscent of an extremely well made cheddar. I like mountain cheeses from Bavaria and Austria generally but this stuff is phenomenal, need to organize a hike and Hütte visit now that the weather is getting warmer*… *haha can I mention we went skiing yesterday? We celebrated the last day the season pass is valid for the year. 3 meters of fresh snow up there still… 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Maison Rustique Posted May 15 Share Posted May 15 I got some Purple Haze in my Misfits order last week and it was a huge hit this weekend. I just put more of it into my order cart. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Most local cheese, eg Point Reyes, are simply retailed too young, I buy Red Hawk and let it rest in our cheese compartment a month or more. Their "best buy" dates are totally wrong, Quote Link to post Share on other sites
