Invierno
Regular price $19.00 Sale

Queso del Invierno translates to 'Winter Cheese' as it is made to age and ripen during Vermont's long winter months. Sheep are very seasonal in their milk production, and are usually milked for just 5-6 months of the year. Traditionally, Vermont Shepherd made pure sheeps' milk cheese from April through October, and would sell through its inventory long before the new season's batch was ready. A few years back, Invierno, a mixed milk cheese made from cow & sheeps' milk was born, and has given us all a reason to celebrate winter! The texture is smooth and firm, and the flavor is bright and nutty with a hint of pleasantly sour citrus. Pairing notes: Pilsner, citrus IPA’s, wheat beers

My first Invierno

I’ve never had anything like this! Invierno has a wonderful slightly creamy texture, smooth, and a nice depth. I definitely noticed the citrus notes, very good!
