Really good episode. Rare though it is, it’s nice to see Gary lock horns with someone who knows more about a subject than he does!
Very educational – I look forward to the follow up episode.

    Finally back in the top 5.

    Great show, we need more of these. Also love the beard, gotta bring him back more often.

    QOTD: hard to choose from, but probably a nice havarti or something

  • Dr T from N. Carolina

    While I enjoy most cheeses, the one I’d love to have again in an Hungarian cheese, called Parenica — don’t suppose y’all carry that one!

    top 5. i would have been one, but there was no link!!!!
    i think this was the best cheese episode to date. i think having the fromagier in, was the sinker. he brought it some good back ground knowledge besides just opinion. anyway, great show and way to end the week.
    QOTD- big surprise, but i like the directness. i would have to go with the real munster cheese from the voges ” dans les voges” in france. at 1st, i thought only in france can you serve this to your good friends. in most parts of the world they would look at you like you are a dick. the real munster “fermier” that you only get in the voges is superb. it has depth and nuance but it it does not get over blown and toooo much like an old shoe that stinks in a bad way.
    have a good weekend

    really emjoyed the guest today who was very knowledgable about the topic. While I’m not very experienced with cheeses this has certainly inspired me to expand into more cheeses.

    A very nice show. We always have a variety of cheese in our fridge, and i’m not talking Velveta here. We love (QOTD) Dragon’s Goat Cheese. Nice job Everett.

    Nothing like a cheese nerd ;). Loved the show!

    While I live in NYC, and I am a frequenter of shops such as Murray’s Cheese, Zabar’s, Citerella, Fairway, Agata Valentina (if you haven’t been there you should give it a shot), etc., I was very impressed with how well edited Wine Library’s gourmet section was. Great food, very helpful and knowledgeable employees, who were really into the product (take Everett for example), and great prices. In fact, they have this great bacon that I can only find at Wine Library in the dirty Jerz. Go figure.

    QOTD: Epoisses, and other stinky wash-rinds. Great stuff.

  • ecola

    had some of these a while back and they really rock!

    Absolutely spanktunkulous. Instant classic and it just goes to show how not only GV but ALL the peeps over at Winelib know their shit, are pationate about it, and how each and everyone of them comes together with a common culture/goal in/for the company.

    I love cheese and eagerly await our next cheeses of the month club shipment.
    I have to say my favorite cheese so far has been a goat cheese that I had the awesome fortune to taste at FoodEx in Tokyo this year. The company was Caseificio Aresu & C.L. and they make an amazing “Selvaggio” made from old goat’s cheese aged appr. 6-12 months. And they have a dry ricotta, “Ricordo” that’s pretty damn tasty, too.

    QOTD: My favorite type of cheese is washed rind cheese, definitely a fan of the funky, runny cheeses. My favorite variety would have to be taleggio.

    Great episode I love my cheese. I love getting a different variety of them from Di Bruno on South Street in Philly. But the best cheese I’ve every had was a Fresh Goat Cheese from a stand on the way to a cousin’s house past Riverhead on Long Island heading to Sound Ave. So fresh, the goats are right there. The cheese is fresh, creamy, and tastes of goat.
