Alemar Soft-Ripened Cheese
An Exquisite Camembert Style
Artisan Cheese.
13 ounces per wheel
When you find something really special, you want to share it with the world.
Keith Adams, cheese maker par excellence, has been my friend going on thirty years. He plies his trade in Minnesota, where quality milk is second to none.
Keith doesn't just make any kind of cheese. He specializes in his own recipe, "Bent River" soft-ripened cheese. This Camembert-style cheese is creamy and unctuous, with plenty of flavor.
Keith hand-makes every wheel, using grass-fed, certified organic milk from Cedar Summit Farm. The secret, he will tell you, is in the milk.
Actually, Keith, the secret is we can share your cheese with the entire country!
The cheese ships directly from Minnesota, and we only ship Next Day Air. Keith will carefully pack each wheel in a specially built shipping container.
The shipped cheese will age at least one month from arrival. Initially, there will be a small button of unripened cheese in the center. As the cheese ages, the button will ripen and you'll have a smooth paste throughout. The ideal time to eat depends on your preference; as the weeks go by, the flavor will gain in intensity, and, ultimately, a faint ammonia smell will develop. Some aficionados swear by this. Again, it's all up to you.
The cheese is stored in a special paper that allows it to breathe and remain sealed. Please avoid plastic wrap! Store opened cheese in its original paper. Cheese is best consumed within a week of opening.
13 ounces per wheel. 2 wheel minimum order. Next Day Air is the only shipping method allowed for this very special cheese, and well worth it!
(Note: Price includes specially built insulated shipping container.)
We ship gifts with a Gift Message at no extra charge, and we happily do not include a receipt with gifts!
