Merlot

Made right here in Wisconsin, this cheese takes wine and cheese pairings to the next level. It is actually soaked in merlot wine during the production process. This semi hard cheese has a rich and creamy texture with notes of plum and berry from the wine.

Gouda

Gouda is a semi soft cheese from the Netherlands. It’s creamy texture makes it a crowd favorite. Stack it on a cracker with a slice of meat to make a bite sized sandwich or enjoy it on its own to let its nutty flavor stand out.

Brie

This famous French cheese is soft and gooey on the inside with a rind on the outside. It’s perfect for spreading on a cracker (or just dip it right in the cheese, we won’t tell anyone). Try topping it with some jam or honey.

Camembert 

Do you like Brie and also enjoy cheeses with stronger flavors? If so, Camembert is perfect for you! Soft on the inside with a outer rind like it’s fellow French cheese, Camembert has some earthy notes and a tangy

Cheddar 

This cheese needs no introduction. Eat it on it’s own, with a cracker, with some fruit or a slice of meat. No matter how your party enjoys it, it’s guaranteed to go fast.

Mozzarella 

This is another cheese we’ve all been familiar with since childhood. Try pairing this soft and neutral flavored cheese with some fruits or meat.

Manchego

This semi soft cheese comes from Spain and is made from sheep’s milk. It is a versatile cheese for pairing. Try a slice with the nuts or olives.

Goat

Another versatile cheese, goat cheese spreads well on a cracker and pairs well with honey, jam, and a variety of fruits. It’s low lactose content also makes it a good choose for those with a lactose intolerance.
