I have the greatest husband, hands down. He gives the BEST presents. On Christmas Eve, he took me to a fancy gourmet import grocery store in Draper, Pirate O's, to pick out any kind of cheese I wanted. I LOVE cheese! It was a fantasy world full of cheese!!! You have got to check this store out. Besides cheese, they had a whole wall full of hot sauce, and tons of other crazy, yummy, imported stuff. Here is what I chose:
Apple and Walnut Smoked Promontory by Beehive Cheese Company -- Bronze Medal World Cheese Awards in the Canary Islands 2009. 3rd Place, Smoked Cheese. American Cheese Society Annual Competition 2008.
Barely Buzzed by Beehive Cheese Company -- This is a full bodied cheese with a nutty flavor and smooth texture. The cheese is hand rubbed with a Turkish grind of Colorado Legacy Coffee Company's "Beehive Blend". The blend consists of a mix of South American, Central American, and Indonesian beans roasted to different styles. French Superior Lavendar buds are ground with the coffee and the mixture is diluted with oil to suspend the dry ingredients in the rub. The rub imparts notes of butterscotch and caramel which are prevalent near the rind, but find their way to the center of the cheese. The cheese is aged on Utah Blue Spruce aging racks in our humidity controlled caves, and moved to different temperature during the aging process to develop texture and flavor. Awards: 1st Place, Flavored Cheddar American Cheese Society Annual Competition 2007, 2008 and 2009.
White Stilton with Apricot and Mango by Clawson Cheese Company -- A slightly sweet Mango flavour bursts through the White Stilton® with a hint of Ginger to warm the taste buds.
Australian Chilli Cream Cheese by Moondarra --Moondarra is an indigenous Koori word and the name of a rich, lush pastoral region of Gippsland - Australia, renowned for the quality and variety of its dairy products. And like our namesake, Moondarra Cheese is also widely acclaimed for the high quality, innovative and unique range of flavoured cheese we produce.
Queso de oveja al romero = sheep cheese with rosemary. So unique I can't even find info about it!
Thanks for being so thoughtful, babe! Love ya!
