Grafton Village Maple Smoked Cheddar (8 ounce) by igourmet.com(more) »rank: 6636from: igourmetOur review: :Maple Smoked Cheddar is just one of the Grafton Village Cheese Company's excellent cheeses. It is bathed in the cool smoke from smoldering hard maple wood for four to six hours at the end of the aging period. What taste could be more typical of Vermont? The smoke is used to season, not to preserve. It adds a delicious nuance reminiscent of bacon, and is an excellent part of any breakfast menu (try it in an omelet!) and on cocktail trays. We were so impressed by its quality that we honored Maple Smoked Cheddar from Grafton Village as our July 2002 Cheese-of-the-Month. Detail |
Capradoro (8 ounce) by igourmet.com(more) »rank: 7086from: igourmetOur review: :Sardinia is one of the least populated regions of Italy. Natural pastures cover more than half the area of this secluded Mediterranean island. Sheep and goats are widely raised on Sardinia's beautiful hilly interior where herbs such as rosemary, sage, myrtle and juniper grow wild. This is where Sardoformaggi (established in 1963) gets its milk for Capradoro. A rarity among Italian cheeses, Capradoro is an aged goat's milk cheese. This hard, flaky cheese has incredible floral notes and a refreshing lemony tang. A truly remarkable tasting goat cheese, Capradoro is excellent on a cheese board and suitable for grating or shredding.Made from ... Detail |

Mascarpone by Vermont Butter & Cheese Co. (8 ounce) by igourmet.com(more) »rank: 7051from: igourmetOur review: :Not long ago, the word mascarpone would draw quizzical looks. Nowadays, the distinctly Italian-sounding name is the only thing obscure about this velvety, rich cream cheese. One story suggests that a visiting Spanish dignitary in the 16th-century tasted fresh mascarpone in Italy and proclaimed it mas que bueno - better than good! In the early 1990's, as U.S. chefs discovered the dessert phenomenon tiramisu, its chief ingredient - mascarpone - began to grow in popularity. It was only a matter of time before Allison Hooper and Bob Reese, co-founders of Vermont Butter & Cheese Company, were asked to create mascarpone locally. Since ... Detail |
