Product Description
Crater Lake Blue Cheese is aptly named following a single of Oregon\'s best organic attractions. The pronounced and vibrant blue veins striated across the creamy white paste mirror the clouds more than Crater Lake. This robust blue has a silky paste bright with flavors of sweet cream, red fruit, and a sharp finish. From The Rogue Creamery\'s inauspicious beginnings in 1935 has come one of the finest artisan cheese operations in the world today. In 2002, Ignazio \"Ig\" Vella (affectionately recognized as the Godfather of artisan cheese) hand-chosen Cary Bryant and David Gremmels as the new owners of what is now known as The Rogue Creamery. Of utmost importance was to carry on the tradition of hand-milled cheese. Bryant and Gremmels hit the ground operating. Inside a 12 months, they had been generating award-winning cheeses, one particular of which is the gorgeously named Crater Lake Blue.Crater Lake Blue, the American Cheese Society\'s 2004 gold medal winner and much more recently, June 2006, took house a bronze medal for foil-wrapped, blue-vein cheese produced outdoors the United Kingdom at the Planet Cheese Awards. It is a contemporary blue cheese. Robust and sweet with a rich buttery finish, it is best described as a mix of Roquefort and Danish blue cheese recipes. Versatile on a cheese plate or in a particular recipe. Its complexity of flavor can make it one of the rare blues that can pair completely with both Ruby and Tawny ports.
