Twinning mongers! We just opened the most BEAUTIFUL wheel of Alp Blossom! She could win a beauty contest! Made by Albert Kraus in Bavaria with raw milk from Brown Swiss cows and completely covered in gorgeous flowers including marigold, cornflower, rose and lavender among other herbs! It’s smooth and creamy with a floral savory finish!

(Also, happy birthday Hannah! We love you!)

TWO AND A HALF CANADIANS! We just got a wheel of Alfred Le Fermier! Made by fourth generation farmers in Compton, Quebec Fromagerie La Station took the top Best of Show award at American Cheese Society 2025! We think this raw milk, farmstead beauty tastes like bacon bits in a baked potato! Pair it with this super crunchy Canadian mustard from Kozlik's Premium Condiments! Pop in and grab some of this award winning cheese!

We almost always have La Tur from Caseificio dell'Alta Langa S.r.l. in our case but have you tried a slice of Toma Della Rocca?! Also made with a combo of cow, goat and sheep milk (with a lil cream 😘) this luscious yet light cheese gives us lime creamsicle vibes and cools us right down! Grab a wedge while you can!

A new (old) cheese just hit our case: Alter Fritz! As huge fans of mountain-style cheeses it is always a thrill to discover a new one! For a long time, the Swiss Cheese Union strictly controlled which cheeses were supported and promoted, but after that organization was disbanded in 1999, independent cheesemakers finally had the freedom to craft their own unique creations!

We love the classics AND we’re excited to welcome these brilliant new additions to the cheese world! Willkommen Old Fritz!

It’s National Wine and Cheese Day?!? Say less.

This cheese is literally called Temptations in French and is an ultra luscious soft-ripened pillow of a cheese! We paired it up with a cave favorite L’Unique Gaz de Schiste sparkling Rosé! Together they are raspberries and cream! Celebrate accordingly! Santé!

Tomatoes and Mozzarella Di Bufala Campana get all the credit as a perfect pair BUT have you ever had it with stone fruit and figs?!?

Make a lovely salad with some of our awesome olive oil and grab some herbs OR better yet take turns biting each of them over the sink cheesemonger style!

Seems like a perfect day for a hunk of Grana D’Oro Vacche Rosse and a chilled bottle of Lambrusco Rose! This very special Parmigiano Reggiano is made with the milk of Red Cows (Razza Bovina Reggiana) that almost went extinct! Thank you to the Catellani family (who we had the joy of meeting a few years back!) for dedicating their lives to preserving this ancient breed of cows and creating the Red Cow DOP! It’s rich and savory and nutty and deserves a seat at your table!

Three years ago we bought these anchovies in Parma and now they are here in the shop in Claremont! They are “Delicius”-ly buttery and savory. They will totally add depth of flavor to your sauce but honestly we just like em straight out of the tin! Buon appetito, ragazzi!
