Product Description

Inspired by our own favorites, we've designed this assortment of our favorite cheeses for winter. This assortment includes:

• Gruyere de Comte: Comté is a handmade, artisan French cheese of the truest type. This raw-milk Comté is aged for six months, and develops a tight-knit texture and satiny body. (8 oz)
• Monte Veronese: Skilled artisans hand craft Monte Veronese Latte Interno in Lessinia, the picturesque mountain area above Verona. It is a semi-hard, semi-cooked, slightly straw-colored cow's milk cheese with a scattering of tiny, diffused holes. Serve this smooth, earthy cheese with crisp fruits and vegetables. (8 oz)
• Appenzeller: This Swiss cheese has a pleasantly smooth texture, but this cheese's true allure is its fruity tang. In fact, Appenzeller pairs extremely well with fresh fruit; it melts nicely for fondue, too. (8 oz)
• Colliers Welsh Cheddar: Collier's Welsh Cheddar brings together the finest ingredients, a heritage of cheese making and particular recipes to produce products of unmistakable quality and character. (8 oz)
• igourmet.com Signature Cheese Serving Knife: Specifically crafted for us at igourmet.com, this multi-function cheese knife is the perfect tool to easily slice uniform servings of your favorite cheeses.

Please Note: Any item temporarily out of stock will be substituted with a similar item of equal or greater value.

5.0 out of 5 stars A lifesaver in the combat zone, March 8, 2010

This review is from: Assortment of Winter Cheeses (2 pound) (Misc.)

One of the main sources of joy during recent combat tours was a box of goodies from the US. Cookies sent from the States tended to be either crumbs or AWOL (pilfered) by the time that they got to the front line. One of the joys that did not translate well into the diet of many marines and soldiers was cheese. While we could obtain many different products, cheese was one of the hardest to obtain.

The joy in my unit was palpable whenever the "Old Man" received a box of cheese from the US.

Igourmet, nicely done! The entire box was consumed within three hours of arrival.

Igourmet packs the cheese in a weather resistant box to include dry ice, and it worked maginificiently. The cheese was fresh and ready when it arrived in Iraq.

In service,

Rich
