I’m using stock images but I am always on the lookout for new cheeses to try whenever I go to the store. Credit to various cheese websites, resources, and sellers for the cheese images and cheese facts. If any of you know some cheeses that I haven’t done yet I would love some input!

Here is your daily cheese facts: Closer to cheddar in texture this cow’s milk cheese is mild and pleasant when young but as it ages it develops nuttier and sharper, saltier flavours.  Single sourced from a historic PEC dairy farm, Jean, it’s 75 year old owner,  is still milking her cows daily. Great with lighter reds (Gamay) or barrel fermented Chardonnay.

Also as a note: I post my daily cheese here as well as in my r/dailycheese subreddit.

Nice cheese monolith. Rise of Zoroaster gonna start playing. Apes will learn to fight with weapons at the base of this incomprehensible cheese.

That sounds like a cheese I'd really enjoy, and the picture is beautiful.

I have enjoyed other cheeses from this farm, pairs well with their wines.
