Amadeus: A new cow’s milk cheese from Austria. Like gouda, very nice. A white wax rind. Named after Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.
Cheshire: England’s oldest cheese, listed in the Doomsday Book (dated 1085). Very crumbly; it isn’t spreadable, so use a spoon.
Blue Cashel: developed in 1984, it is Ireland’s original artisinal blue, and is the creation of Jane and Louis Grubb, a husband and wife team. Steve Jenkins says “To my mind, what Cashel Blue most resembles is the world’s finest Gorgonzola. I’m rarely out of it.” We thought it was very good.
