Cheese Selection

Cheese Club Exclusive: Cambria Clothbound Cow Cheddar Reserve

Indulge in this rare and exquisite delight, crafted with care and tradition. Our limited-release cheddar is made from the finest local cow's milk and follows a time-honored process. Our expert team of cheese makers crafts this cheese over the span of 24 months. Each wheel is filled by hand and the curds are milled, stacked, and carefully salted, ensuring every bite is a testament to quality and craftsmanship.

Bound in muslin cloth, this cheese undergoes an extended aging period, allowing moisture to evaporate gradually, which intensifies its fermentation and unlocks deep, rich flavors. The result is a cheese with irresistible pineapple and caramel notes, a perfect balance of saltiness, and a satisfyingly crumbly texture with little tyrosine cheese diamonds inside. This limited-edition treasure is more than just cheese—it’s an unforgettable culinary experience.

Additional Selections

Ragged Point
Inspired by the gateway to Big Sur, this small-format bloomy rind triple crème cow’s milk cheese is as breathtaking as its namesake.

Fromage Blanc
A fresh, soft cheese with a tangy lactic flavor, often called the French answer to yogurt or cream cheese. Enjoy the creamy richness without the goaty twang.

Moonstone
A natural rind, hard cow’s milk cheese made from a 50/50 blend of Jersey and Holstein milk. Its pale yellow paste and naturally developed rind bring out flavors of stone, burnt caramel, and coffee grounds, with a hint of zip at the end.

Artisan Pairings

This shipment’s artisan pairings include crackers crafted by our friends Sarah and Boo from Lady and Larder, in collaboration with Rustic Bakery. These crackers are neutral, perfectly crunchy, and salty—the perfect companions for our cheeses. For a sweet treat, we’ve also included a 2oz jar of jam from Happy Girl Kitchen in Pacific Grove, CA, made from the freshest organic ingredients.

Enjoy your exclusive Cheese Club offerings! We are so grateful to have you as part of our family.
