| From TJ's; a Comte, a CA aged cheddar (bandage wrapped) that has a nice sweetness, and "Iberico" from the Basque region that tasted like a semi-soft manchego.
From the Beaverton Farmers' Market; River's Edge Chevre. One with some olive tapenade blended in and another coated with black truffle oil and had a cute design on top made from herbs and edible flowers. | | | |

| | Don't know if it's been listed, but we had a wonderful Humboldt Goat Cheese. The ash going through it was wonderful. | | | |

| Haven't been as active on this thread lately... but I had, quite possibly, the best cheese I have EVER had.
Roquefort Vieux Berger.
I'm a huge blue/gorgonzola fan, and this stuff was just out of this world. I was going to pick up some Rogue Creamery blue (one of my favorites) and the counter lady made me try some. Yum. A little pricey, but amazingly creamy and just a perfect balance. | | | |

Boy did the color on the rind freak me out. Webstie says it's supposed to be sunset-colored. Quite rich. That with some pear, focaccia, and some wine, and I'm satisfied. | | | |

| | The La Serena is great stuff isn't it? Needs to be room temp to get the full effect and get it to soften but a great cheese. | |

| | funny thing is, the info tag(for the la serena) stated "not for the faint of heart", and then my cheese lady went out of her way to explain how "aggresive" it is, and that not everyone "gets" it. now.....maybe i've gotten to a point where, i dunno, my chese palate is slightly more advanced than the average joe??? but i did not find it aggressive, nor would i categorize it as for the faint of heart. it did have a small amount of stink, but nothing that someone should be warned about. agree??? | | | |
