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.

    Gary, great show. Evert is a real keeper at your show. What wines go with the cheeses you tasted?

    QOTD: Just starting to get into cheese a little more, but I like harder aged cheese, like Parmesan, and Manchego. The Blues are starting to attract me a little more too.

    QOTD: Brie is the go-to cheese. But I enjoy many types of cheese. I don’t like the smoked flavored cheese or super-duper stinky cheese. A little bit of stink is ok.

    Domaine Hudson in Wilmington, DE has an awesome cheese menu.

    Awesome show. Love the cheese. Can we maybe do a sausage/meat show, too? Full fledged perfect pairing show?

    QOTD: Anything that doesn’t come in plastic wrapping or out of a can, I’m good. The stinkier, the better.

  • QOTD: It’s been a tie this year: Moulis Cremier and Fleur d’ Anis

    Who cut the cheeze, man?

    I love cheeze!

    However, I tend to go for firm cheddars, aged of course.

    Depending on what I’m drinking…I will evaluate cheeze according to the acidity and tannic structure I find in wine and the way the cheeze counter-balances…

    By the way, where was the wine in today’s show?

    Love y’all…

    Justin sent me some of that red hawk. Absolutely awesome, I had half on Saturday and the other half today. I liked it best on Saturday. Had texture like a fine NY cheese cake.

    QOTD: Beside red hawk, I’m a big fan of rogue river blue.

  • Asking me what my favorite cheese is would be like asking a mother to pick her favorite kid. I just love them all. I am going on my honeymoon to holland in november and I plan to eat my weight in cheese 😉

    I’m obsessed with the Beemster Classic, a Dutch cheese you sell. When I finished my first wedge, I dreamt all night that I was eating it. I have also googled images of the wheel, haha! Buy it! Love it! The Beemster is awesome!

    I’ve been enjoying sheep’s milk cheeses lately, the more firm type. That’s all I know about it.
    Cool show, maybe you could have thrown in one wine?
    Thanks Gary

    I guess I’m not a “purist” but I love Cotswold (herb infused cheddar)!

  • I have recently been a fan of the cheeses that the Amish farmers make and sell in the stores locally. They’re soft, creamy, and generally mild. Brie is an old standby, and if I’m goin’ cheddar, the sharper the better.

    Cotswold, which is a Double Gloucester with chives is a good cheese, Chimay makes a good cheese. Bries and stronger washed rind stuff.

    Artisanal Cheeses..yuummm! I love the Cowgirl Creamery cheeses. The cheese made by this woman http://www.andantedairy.com are my favorite. Also the Humboldt Fog http://www.cypressgrovechevre.com- with it’s ribbon of vegetable ash in the center.

    GREAT SHOW! More cheese shows would be great, because I certainly didn’t know there was such a “artisan” element to it.

    QOTD: I’d have to say brie is my favorite … gouda is up there though.

    Ohhhh man. Watching you guys eat cheese makes me drool with jealousy. Gary you are evil. Loved the show!! You guys rock. Now I must come buy and pick up some artisan cheeses for my palette.

    QOTD: Any great salty hard Parmesan. Something about the bite that it brings. I’ve never had triple-cream cheeses, so maybe it’ll change because I do like a woody’s and buttery taste too.

    QotD: Unfortunately, I’ve got killer allergies and can only eat your standard cheeses or else it’s DOA City for Big Luth.
