  2. “Your cheese looks crazy,” my wife said this morning.

    “Unfortunately,” I sighed, “it’s just kinda a plain crumbling dry cheddar.”

    This technicolor Ivy’s looks good, but has below average flavor and texture. Very crumbly, almost “mouth dusty.”

  6. No, I haven’t stopped eating Cheddar.

    Picked up this new old cheese this week, no real origin information except “Canada.”

    Not as sweet as a British cheddar, this one definitely has more New England vibes. Decent cream melt in your month, very solid flavor. Nothing to object to. Nothing to be “wow, this has changed my life.” Just a solid, aged sharp-ish white cheddar.

  10. Another widely-available cheddar from one of the best butter makers in the world.

    It’s a super mild, a little wet, kinda just “eh, it’s fine” cheddar with hints of sour. Not a bad cheese, but maybe just stick it and a sandwich and don’t think twice about it.

  14. Stopped into Safeway.

    British Organic Dairy Co’s Extra Sharp 12mo was a great surprise.

    Nutty, creamy with almost a back-of-the-throat activation. So British. Almost Beer Cheese Soup cheese.

    From Summerset, “the birthplace of cheddar.”

    Gonna try this back to back with some of my favorite British creams and see how it stands.

  18. Milton Creamery’s Prairie Breeze was the cheesemonger at Zupan’s “favorite cheddar,” and gotta say, they’re not wrong. Moist and crumbly, sweet with a hint of hoppy-ness. Nice mouth stickiness. Bright but complex. Recommended.

  22. Despite a 4.7 star rating on Amazon, this Whole Foods exclusive aged cheddar from Kerrygold was super disappointing.

    Feels like an extra hard cheddar, has an almost smoky flavor, though there’s no smoke in it, and has a Gouda like-finish that wasn’t great. My first reaction was briney, and not in a good way.

    They release this one in January for St. Patrick’s day, but if you like Irish Cheddar I’d stick to one of Kerrygold’s standards.

  26. One doesn’t simply expect their cheddar cheese to taste like provolone and that is Joe’s secret in this one.

    Truth is, kinda liked it. Fruity and bright, like a stackable provolone, but not very cheddary.

  30. Is it weird I never think of Trader Joe’s? I seem like I’d be a TJ kind of person, and admittedly I once was. Anyway picked up this cheddar there.

    Apparently in New Zealand, sharp cheddar is another word for “practically Swiss.”

    Not bad at all, but not very cheddary to me.

  34. Real intense, kinda bitter moist cheddar. Great pair with fruit or on a cheese plate to add some depth, but not sure it’s a good “by itself” daily driver. A little musty. I’d buy again for a special occasion, maybe, but not gonna rush back out to the store to get more.

  38. Fantastic find at New Seasons today.

    Prairie breeze is an almost alpine cheddar with a super-sweet flavor. Great crystallization.

    Could probably eat all 6oz in one sitting.

  42. Picked up the WSU (pronounced Wazzzu) Cougar Gold at Zupan’s.

    It’s… fine.

    Creamy and sharp, maybe a little grassy? Nothing I’d probably buy again.

  46. Also went to Safeway scouting cheeses the other day and nothing looked super interesting, though I probably should have tried the Sierra Nevada (no relation to the beer) Organic Raw Milk White Cheddar just to see what it had to offer. Next time.

  50. Latest tests come from Whole Foods and both are store-exclusives. Neal's Yard Dairy "Keen's Cheddar" and Deer Creek's 36mo Cheddar.

    Neal's from the UK has a near-parmy taste with a decent melt, but isn't anything special. Hint of dust mold.

    Deer Creek from Wisconsin is closer to just a regular store-brand cheddar.

    Both are fine with crackers, but nothing here stands out as worth trying again.

  54. Rouge Creamery Hopyard Cheddar.

    WOAH, this is a weird one. So it kinda tastes like bread-cheese?

    They basically took hops and mixed them in milk and made a sorta soft-cheddar. I had a few bites and I don’t think it is really for me, but if you’re a hoppy IPA beer-head you might like it?

    Don’t eat it with another cheese, it really is overpowering.
