Cheese Board

We cut all of our cheese to order right in front of you and right from the same wheels we import. It takes a touch longer, but this way you can always taste the cheese before you buy it and get as much, or as little, as you like.

Please note: Not every cheese listed is always in stock or available.

Besides having a cut to order program using the highest available quality cheese, we are incredibly competitive with even the largest grocery stores. Like many things in life, when it comes to cheese you usually get what you pay for. Many people do not balk at paying for a fifty-dollar bottle of wine and yet they cringe when they see an expensive cheese. We think that a great wine deserves a great cheese. It is also important to realize that we price most of our cheeses by the half pound, which is a very large amount of cheese. Most customers do not require a whole pound and in fact, the general rule is: the better the cheese, the less of it you will require.
