Cheese of the Month

Malinda recently signed us up for a cheese-of-the-month club. The idea was very appealing. Who doesn’t want a fresh supply of interesting and "new" cheeses delivered to your door every month?

We got three very different cheeses in our first month’s delivery and discovered an incredible goat cheese. It's called Buche de Chevre and is a goat's milk cheese from Poitou in the loire Valley. It was sharp and tangy near the rind and got progressively richer and creamier toward the center. The other two cheeses were just OK. They were really nothing special. The next month, well, we don’t really know. We sort of overdosed on cheese and we haven’t been able to break into the second month. This is a problem as we're expecting our third month's delivery any day now.

If you don’t think an endless supply of cheese is a problem and it’s a problem you wish you had, visit igourmet.com. Their cheese of the month is one of the cheaper of-the-month clubs I’ve seen. The good thing about their cheese-of-the-month club is that you can choose three, six or twelve months. We’re signed up for six months. Oh cheeses!
