Raw, Cow’s milk

About: A cow’s milk version of the Basque sheep’s milk classic, Ossau-Iraty.  A rustic beauty that is delightfully mild and creamy.  Le Somport offers nutty flavors with hints of fruit on its lush finish.

For those of you with the added Charcuterie of the Month:

Sujuk’ – We selected a new favorite from Spotted Trotter in Georgia.  The Sujuk’ is a beef and lamb salami that is a beautifully delicious accompaniment to any cheese plate.
