Imagine a hybrid of piquant Asiago and a sweet, nutty 4 year old Gouda.

To accomplish this marriage of Southern and Northern European style cheeses, we age it anaerobically in Caputo's Cheese Caves for 16 months. After about 12 months, the Asiago starter cultures die off, and more Gouda-like cultures take over.

TASTING: Brown sugar, Rich cream, Grass, Coffee, Crumbly
SERVING: Table cheese crowd-pleaser, Grate over scrambled eggs, Popcorn, or Pasta
PAIRING: Pasta & Sauce, Figs, Farmhouse cider, Minerally white wines, e.g. Chenin blanc, Manoa Rum Bar
CULTURAL ORIGIN: United States
MADE IN WISCONSIN :: TRANSFORMED IN UTAH

Please expect some variation, up to 5%, on your hand-cut piece of cheese
