Pick up Party Date: Thursday, February 23rd at 6:30pm.

The Basics:

February's cheese is an island cheese made on Terschelling, a winter-appropriate drizzly, damp island that is part of the West Frisian Islands in Northern Holland, along the edge of the Wadden Sea (pictured at left). The Dutch excel at Gouda and Terschelling is just another piece of delicious evidence in support of their prowess. 

Made from organic sheep milk, on the farmstead of Jolanda and Gerben Bakker who also keep themselves busy with vegetable farming and educational programs for children about farming and sheep. Thank goodness someone is fostering the next generation of shepherds!

Wheels are aged for 8-12 months by our heroes at L'Amuse Fromagerie (Betty and Martin Koster) who have also wowed us with L'Amuse Gouda, Brabander Goat Gouda, and Wilde Weide. We are in great hands this month.

This cheese and the pick up could serve as wonderful antidotes for the gloom we all anticipate in Portland in February. We hope you'll join us!
