Random cheeses for your pleasure...

There is no rhyme nor reason to this cheese listing.  I've been so terrible about keeping this thing updated!  It's about time I give my dear followers (or lack there of) a nice bit to read and consider.


Just the way it sounds.  Horseradish flavored cheddar cheese.  If you enjoy cheese and you enjoy horseradish then you'll absolutely love this baby!  It's great by itself or on mild crackers.  The taste is very strong, but it can't be beat.


Fig and walnut spreadable cheese.  It's sweet (but not too sweet), crunchy and nutty.  A unique flavor, to be sure, but one that you can definitely sink your teeth into!  Great on crackers or crisps.


This is not one of my favorite cheeses but I'd recommend trying it at least once.  It reminds me, if anything, of cheesecake.  Toffee flavored cheesecake.  But the texture is different so it's peculiar.


Such a soft cheese!  Easily spreadable if left out at room temperature for about twenty minutes.  Cold it can easily be cubed and eaten with toothpicks.  The flavor is very light, a little sweet, a little tangy, and overall delicious.



I tried this guy just the other day.  The brand name is Greek Kiss.  It's goat cheese wrapped in grape leaves.  It's absolutely fantastic.  I'm not sure if you're actually supposed to eat the leaves with it, but I did!  It gives this delicate, flaky cheese a nice crunch.  The effect as a whole is entirely Greek.
