The perfect expression of terroir- this collaboration between Anne Saxelby in NYC and Jasper Hill Farm in VT won First Runner Up for Best of Show by the American Cheese Society in 2018. The wheels are brine washed for six months then coated in hay from Jasper Hill’s one of a kind cropping center. The cheese is an exploration into the impact of the cow’s diet o n the finished cheese. It is firm, nutty, and complex with flavors of caramel, chestnut honey, earth, toasted bread, and tropical fruit.
the flagship blue of Jasper Hill Farm and a stellar representation of blue cheese
Though there was never a major battle in Greensboro during the Revolutionary War, the Bayley Hazen road was a very important part of Greensboro history- bringing the area’s first settlers and continuing to be used today. Named for the road built by George Washington’s troops with the attempt of a Canadian invasion, this Jasper Hill Farm original is way too delicious. It is creamy, chocolaty, and salty, this blue has the perfect balance of luscious fat and bright acid.
These nearly 40 pound wheels are bound in cloth and do their aging in the caves at Jasper Hill Farm. of the 6 caves located at Jasper Hill Far, one entire cave is committed exclusively to the aging of this special cheddar and helps to fund the rest of the gaining facility on the farm. The wheels are grassy and herbaceous with a long a bright finish.
An insanely sweet (and a little boozy) blue that is all about orchard fruit
These adorable wheels of blue are aged then packed with a generous pour of Eden Cider’s ice cider. The wheels absorb the cider during their last bit of aging and truly take on the incredible mouthfeel and flavors of the ice cider. This cheese is wonderfully creamy and rich with a paste that is sweet, decadent, and tastes exactly like super sweet apples.

This interesting and mineral driven wheel will have you craving more
These wheels are incredibly bright with an acidic core and a gorgeous creamline paste perfectly expressive of cave and minerals with a mushroom and lemon finish. Named for the pristine glacial lake that is at the center of the Greensboro community, Caspian is the farm’s take on a classic Savoie, France style tomme.
