![]() Update on Arrival of Seasonal Cheeses Pumpkin Chevre - In Shop! Made seasonally by local producers CKC Farms in Blanco, Texas, this fresh chevre likes the tangier cousin of the inside of the pumpkin pie...and it's been us after school treat for the last several days. Not available elsewhere. Only through Nov. Rogue River Blue - In Shop! Arrives periodically through Dec. Just won WORLD'S BEST CHEESE! An organic, pasteurized cow's milk cheese wrapped in sycamore leaves macerated in pear brandy. Limited production. Rush Creek Reserve - In Shop! Arrives periodically through Dec. A bark-wrapped, raw cow's milk cheese made from richer fall milk and lightly washed in brine, resulting in an ooey-gooey, spoonable treat. Made in the style of French Vacherin Mont d'Or. Limited production. Glarner Alpkase - In Shop! This 18-month old raw cow's milk cheese was made in summer 2018 when the cows were grazing high in the Alps, arguably making for a more delicious cheese as they consume diverse flora. Received especially through our Adopt-an-Alp program and not offered in the United States. Black Betty - Debut party Sat 11/9 (6 tickets left). In shop Sun 11/10! Specially selected and aged wheels of Brabander Goat Gouda from Betty Koster in Holland. Limited production. Not readily available elsewhere. RACLETTE NIGHT with The Antonellis ![]() Okay, okay. Simmer down, Kendall. What is Raclette, you may be asking? Raclette comes from the french word racler meaning to scrape. Raclette refers to a cheese, a machine, and a dish. Quite simply? It's a cheese that traditionally was melted fireside during winter months and scraped onto a plate of potatoes, cornichon pickles, and cured meats. Here and there, you'll see cute little trays for melting. Oh no. We're offering it in the quarter wheel, pictured here. So how does this work as an event? For our Sun 11/24 event, we're selling tickets by the table. Each table will have a raclette machine and a quarter wheel of cheese on it, as well as spreads of potatoes, pickled goods, and cured meats (for those who want it). You can designate a "scraper" for the evening to keep at it, or you can take turns switching up the experience of scraping the top melting cheese layer onto your plate. But because it's one machine and a quarter wheel (3 pounds) per table, we wanted to make sure you know your guests. The evening will start with a tasting of 3 French or Swiss cheeses with pairings (while your raclette is heating up). You'll also get to enjoy a complimentary bottle of Pinot Noir to warm your belly (but feel free to opt-out or bring any other beverages you might enjoy pairing). So get a group together from 1-6 people and come enjoy the evening. You can take home anything you don't consume. And for whoever, wants to be part of our guinea pig crew, we promise to make this evening you won't forget. So that we can work through everything and make this the best evening possible, both John and I (Kendall) Antonelli will be leading the first event. The price per table is $275 (approx $45pp if you have 6 people). And if you have fewer people, you get to eat a lot more cheese! (Note: We cannot seat groups larger than 6 together.) *Photography: We will be taking photos from this first dinner to use for future promotional materials. Ticket details here!
