Description

Cabot Clothbound Cheddar cheese

In 2003, Cabot Creamery asked Jasper Hill Farm to age a special batch of cheddar, sparking a revolutionary collaboration. After more than twenty years, the cheese has developed into the cornerstone of their collection. After it comes to the Cellars, they coat the young cheese in lard and add an additional layer of cloth. The cheeses ripen in a specially calibrated vault in their cellars, where they are constantly brushed, turned, and monitored for quality.

This clothbound Cheddar has a signature tang and caramel nuttiness with a rustic crystalline texture that becomes creamy on the palate. This savory-sweet balance of flavor makes a perfect match for charcuterie, apple jelly, or a rich chestnut honey. Pair with an off-dry sparkling apple cider, hoppy ale, or an oaked Cabernet Sauvignon.

Cabot Clothbound Cheddar is an award-winning cheese, including the American Cheese Society’s 2006 Best in Show.
