If you're not familiar with our Community Supported Cheese program (aka Cyril's Cheese Club), read about how it works and the inspiration behind it here.

May 2015 Selection: Mimolette

Pick up Party Date: Thursday, May 19th. 6:30pm at Cyril's.

The Basics:

Mimolette is a cow's milk cheese, made in France, aged anywhere from 6 months to multiple years. The one we're bringing in is aged 18 months.

A Bit More: 

This cheese has seen its share of controversy mostly due to some tiny things that live on the surface of it- not to worry, we'll discuss in great detail- but it's also a beloved cheese which makes sense given that it tastes somewhat like the offspring of Cheddar and Gouda.

A perfect cheese for every time of day- a lump for breakfast would not be misaligned with a cup of coffee or tea, a slice for lunch would play nice with apples or as the supporting cast for a turkey sandwich, and a wedge provides a pop of color and flavor that would compliment any cheese board selection.

Pick up Party: Thursday, May 19th. 6:30pm at Cyril's.
