RETURN (t0) FLIGHT: Beurre d'Isigny Demi-Sale - France

Perhaps not the splurge for everyone, I thought it would be fun to bring in a special butter for the holiday season, and it sold out so fast I decided to bring it in again!! 

This BUTTER (not cheese, but butter!!!) is a PDO (Protected Designation of Origin) butter from Isigny-sur-Mer in the North West of France, and is unlike any other butter you likely would have had before. It has a buttercup yellow colour and slightly hazelnutty flavour profile, and has followed a slow, traditional fermentation process that helps it develop its distinctive aromas and flavours. 

What makes this butter different than the butter you're used to? A few things -- the Isigny region has a warm and humid climate, and is close in proximity to the ocean and marshes. The cows, therefore, feed on grass that is rich in iodine, beta-carotene and micronutrients, giving the butter its own unique flavour! This butter is 100% natural, and has a fat content of at least 82% (for reference, Canadian butter is only 80%) with tons of Vitamin A and E. This butter contains no artificial flavours, preservatives or colouring. This butter also goes through a special production process called tourage that gives it a malleable yet firm texture, and is favoured by French pastry chefs when making light & airy puff pastries and crispy baked goods with buttery flavour! 

For more information on this particular butter, visit the Isigny website here.

RETURN (to) FLIGHT: Buchette aux Fleurs - France

This is Buchette aux Fleurs from Fromagerie Jacquin. It’s a soft goat cheese coated in a variety of dried flowers which lend a light floral flavour to the citrus-y, tart and creamy goat cheese. Definitely not on the funky/heavy side, this cheese is light & easy to snack on. 


Before I REALLY got into cheeses, this was one of the first artisanal cheese I tried and I’ve loved it ever since! It’s on my mental lists of good ones that I always know I can keep coming back to and will enjoy.

NEW ARRIVAL: Picobello - Netherlands

Picobello is a super interesting Dutch cheese with an Italian name! Rumoured to be a Gouda that's inspired by Parmigiano Reggiano, this cheese is an ultra-delicious one that's great for snacking. Chock full of tyrosine crystals (aka cheese diamonds), the texture of this cheese is perfectly balanced between slightly creamy and crunchy/crumbly with the abundance of crystals. Picobello has the characteristic flavour of a Gouda - creamy, caramelly, butterscotchy goodness - with the texture of a well aged Italian cheese!

Sold by weight, $9.00/100g 

RETURN (to) FLIGHT: Shropshire Blue - UK 

Shropshire Blue is a blue cheese made from pasteurized cows' milk and uses vegetable rennet. It's orange colour comes from the addition of annatto, a natural food colouring, and has a moderate amount of blue veining. It tastes much like a cheddar cheese with a hint of blue, and uses the same recipe as Stilton blue, giving it a familiar but unique flavour profile. This cheese is perfect for snacking or on salads, and pairs beautifully with any red wine.

Sold by weight, $10.50/100g 

HOLIDAY SPECIAL: Vacherin Mont d'Or - Switzerland

Called the "holy grail of raw milk cheeses", Mont d'Or is world renowned as being one of the best, ooey-gooey-full-flavoured cheeses out there. It's a washed rind cheese with heady aromas of wood and bacon mixed with funky cream, garlic, and hay. It's salty and milky, funky and bold, creamy and rich - the pinnacle of what great cheese is. Mont d'Or is not an easy cheese to describe, but its reputation speaks volumes. It's best when baked with some white wine and garlic. 

I have only brought in FOUR of this cheese for Easter. Contact me to reserve one for you!

For some more information on Mont d'Or, visit these links: 

David Lebovitz Review - "Folks, I gotta tell you, this is one amazing cheese and if you get a chance to try one, you won’t know what hit you. I’ve had a few in my life that were exceptionally good just as is (unbaked). But when baked, it’s like a brain wreck of everything going on – fat, funk, fresh cream, wood, garlic, rank, and a peculiar buttery sharpness scrambling all of your senses together in each single mouthful. And if that description didn’t scare you away, then you’ll be rewarded with a life-altering eating experience."

The Kitchn - "Touted as the “Holy Grail of soft cheese,” Mont d’Or can only be described as a self-gifting ready-to-eat fondue. The Swiss are the original inventors and keepers of fondue — a retro dish created many decades ago for farmers to use up old scraps of bread and cheese during the harsh winters. Fondue ultimately made its way to the United States in the ’70s. Perhaps you remember fondue parties? Or at least wish they still existed? Either way, before fondue there was Mont d’Or — a portable “pot of cheese” for times when you need gooey cheese on the fly."

Flor Villuercas - Queso Ibores - PDO - Spain

This lovely artisanal cheese is made from raw goats milk and rubbed with zesty Spanish paprika! Aged for a minimum of 90 days, this cheese is semi-soft, with a pleasant but not overwhelming goaty flavour and aromas of herbs and paprika. 

Sold by weight, $11.00/100g

NEW ARRIVAL: Crowdie - Ontario

Crowdie is a type of soft, fresh cheese made from cow's milk, traditionally from Scotland, but our friends over at Golspie Dairy in Woodstock, ON have made their own version!

Crowdie is a fresh cheese made using the whole milk from their family farm. It's similar to a cream cheese, but more spreadable with a very smooth texture. Use it in place of cream cheese or sour cream in your favourite recipes! It's a whipped pasteurized cheese, and is easily spreadable right out of the fridge. Use it on a bagel, baked into a danish, melted into a zingy cream sauce, or as a midnight snack with a spoon & some honey. YUM!

Sold in 225g jars, $12.99 each

NEW ARRIVAL: Morbier - France

Listen up, you Kapuskasing lovers! This cheese is what inspired the recipe for Kapuskasing, and it's a bolder, creamier, funkier version of my best seller! 

Morbier is a semi-soft cow's milk cheese named after the small village of Morbier in the Franche-Comte region of France. Morbier is made in the same region as Comté - huge wheels of cheese that, when there was leftover curds that couldn't make the entire 90kg wheel, were put into a smaller form and covered with vegetable ash until the next milking, where they'd put the top layer on and call it a day! Now, Morbier is popular enough that it has its own source of dedicated milk, but that's why there's its characteristic layer through the center. 

Morbier is a pleaseantly & mildly funky cheese that has a lovely, complex nutty & fruity flavour with a subtle zing. It's often described as supple, springy, and silky, yet also dry and sticky at the same time. It also melts really well, and is fantastic on salads, in sandwiches, or let it steal the show on your next cheese board! 

Sold by weight, $8.50/100g 

RETURN (to) FLIGHT: Crottin Germain - France

Crottin de Chevre Germain is a moulded goat cheese made from pasteurized milk and matured in the Berry region of France. Under its fine, white rind hides a firm and slightly crumbly texture with a moderately funky yet delicate flavour. This cheese is a Loire Valley Chevre – meaning that it follows a very similar flavour profile to other cheese from the same region. Chabichou de Poitou, Valencay, Selles-sur-Cher are some examples. This cheese is on the milder side of the Loire funk spectrum, but it’ll give you a great idea of what to expect from this type of cheese.

Sold in 60g wheels, $6.99 each

RETURN (to) FLIGHT: Guinness Cheddar - Ireland 

What better way to celebrate St. Patrick's Day than with an Irish cheddar with Guinness! This lovely cheese is a mature Irish cheddar that is marbled with Guinness beer to give it its stunning appearance! The cheese is slightly sweet and malty with a caramel undertone, and pairs perfectly with your favourite dark beers. Even if you're not a huge fan of dark beers (or Guinness specifically), the veining isn't too overwhelming. I've even had a few people tell me that they enjoy the cheese even though they hate the beer!

I know the label says Irish Porter, but the ingredients list does actually say Guinness!!! (Proof Here). 

Sold by weight, $9.95/100g

RETURN (to) FLIGHT: Saganash - Ontario

This is a decadent, firm sheeps milk cheese from Fromagerie Kapuskoise in Kapuskasing, Ontario. It's just the right amount of salty and earthy, with a very distinct rich, umami-forward flavour. Not only is it great in place of a Pecorino for cooking, this is a 10/10 cheese for snacking, grating, or shaving!

Sold by weight, $10.50/100g

RETURN (to) FLIGHT: Organic Buffalo Camembert - Ponte Reale, Italy

This cheese represents the perfect blend between the well-known Camembert and rich buffalo milk. Buffalo milk is super rich in butterfat which gives the cheese a creamy texture and slightly sweet flavour. Compared to other Camemberts or double cream bries, the wheels I just received are SUPER soft and likely oozey gooey!! The cheese is aged for 15-20 days, and is light, fresh, and perfect for salads, sandwiches, snackin' or enjoying with a light, crisp Prosecco.

Ponte Reale was founded in 1993 by two students who wanted to revolutionize the current dairy farm production and management methodologies by marrying ancient Italian cheesemaking traditions with "cutting edge concepts" such as sustainability and respect to the land and animals. At last Google search, Ponte Reale is the only company that produced DOP Organic Buffalo Milk cheeses and guarantees 100% organic processes, even though regulations only require 95%!

Health wise, Buffalo Milk has 40% less cholesterol but more protein, fat, calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, potassium, and vitamins A, B, and E compared to cow's milk. It does, however, have a higher lactose content than cow's milk cheeses. There have also been studies done in Italy on the digestibility of buffalo milk, and many people can tolerate it better than other types of milks, and it has even been shown to reduce inflammation in the small bowel and help improve overall digestion!

RETURN (to) FLIGHT: Idiazabal - Spain

The cheese is smoked over a blend of wood including beechwood, birch tree, cherry tree and/or white pine. Perfect when paired with Quince jam and a bold, Spanish red. 

Sold by weight, $11.00/100g

NEW ARRIVAL: Guffanti Raclette - Switzerland

Melted on the Raclette machine and served with meats, fruits, veggies and other dishes, this is a fantastic choice for the delicious winter comfort meal from the Alps. 

When serving Raclette for guests, aim for 200g of cheese per person.

RETURN (to) FLIGHT: Godminster Heart Cheddars - UK

This heart-shaped Vintage Bruton Beauty cheese has a rich depth of flavour with a smooth texture that’s irresistibly delicious and will make you come back for more!  

Sold in 200g heart shaped wheels, $18.99 each

NEW ARRIVAL: Reblochon Fermier - France

Reblochon is a soft, washed-rind French cheese made in the Alpine region from raw cow's milk. It's not unlike a raclette cheese, quite soft with a mild pungency that tastes absolutely fantastic when it's melted! Typically used in a French dish called "Tartiflette", Reblochon is typically melted over potatoes and roasted in the oven until it's all ooey gooey and melty and delicious. 

If you're a fan of Raclette but are looking to avoid the big spectacle a Raclette dinner can be, try Reblochon as a side dish for dinner tonight 😉

Wheels are 450g each. Sold by the full wheel for $50 or by weight for $12.00/100g

1/4 wheel (115g) left

RETURN (to) FLIGHT: Le Fleurmier de Charlevoix - Quebec

Fleurmier is a typical soft cheese with a bloomy rind of the Camembert type. The milk comes from the Gouffre valley in Baie-Saint-Paul. It’s rich and velvety paste has a fruity and nutty flavor without any aftertaste. Its texture improves with age and its taste develops without bitterness. Its name comes from the words fleur meaning bloom and fermier – meaning farmer!

Sold in 200g wheels, $16.99 each

NEW ARRIVAL: Moliterno - Black Truffle Cheese - Sardinia, Italy

This beauty is MOLITERNO from the island of Sardinia off the coast of Italy, and is truly a truffle cheese like no other.

During cheesemaking, the sheeps milk cheese is INJECTED with truffle paste and flakes about two months into aging. The cheese then ages for a little bit longer, and the truffle flavour permeates the paste of the otherwise light and salty cheese. For most truffle cheeses, truffles are added directly into the curds before being aged, but Moliterno lets the cheese mature a little bit first, giving it its striking appearance and unique flavour.

Moliterno is produced seasonally from December to July and aged for around 4-6 months. This particular wheel just arrived in Canada, so it's likely that this was among some of the last wheels produced in the summer of 2023, giving us the freshest black summer truffles for this wheel!!!

Its flavour is intensely truffle-y, salty and savoury, and is softer than it looks. This cheese is closer to a young pecorino in texture - creamy, slightly crumbly and SO full of flavour. Its flavour is super persistent, you get to enjoy a lingering truffle flavour for a few minutes after eating this cheese!

If you've ever gotten a truffle cheese from me, you know that I love to blab to anybody who will listen about how truffle cheese is the BEST on popcorn... and this was the first truffle cheese I tried that with! It's absolutely TO DIE FOR!

Sold by weight, $13.50/100g 

Beemster Vlaskaas - Netherlands

Vlaskaas was historically made only once a year, during the flax harvest festival, but as festival traditions fell away, the recipe was buried. Thankfully in 2004, a review of Beemster's past cheeses led to its rediscovery. Vlaskaas was obviously too good to make just once a year and is now available year round! It's buttery with a unique sweet-milk flavour, notes of almond and a touch of sharpness that adds a decadent depth. 

Sold individually, $14.99 each

Crosswinds Farm Chevre – Keene, ON

This chèvre is Crosswind’s Farm pride! A creamy fluffy textured cheese available with savoury herbal notes in various flavour combinations. This soft spreadable cheese has a mild creamy texture with a really enjoyable lemon & thyme flavour. 

I like to compare this chevre to the "tubes" you'd find in the grocery store, but with a much cleaner and lighter flavour with a smoother and less wet texture. I'll personally never go back to the "tubes" when this chevre exists! Perfect for pastas, salads, or any other recipe where you need some fresh goat cheese!

Current flavours: Plain

Sold in 250g containers, $14.99 each

1608 de Charlevoix - Charlevoix, Quebec

Between the years 1608 and 1670, a few hundred head of cattle were imported from France, and gave birth to the Canadienne breed of cows. Of the estimated 500,000 head herd in 1900, less than 500 remain today. They were reintroduced in Chaelevoix in 2007, and the effort to raise the population has been in full swing since! The creation of 1608 cheese is one of the ways the effort is supported. 

1608 is a delicious, melt in your mouth cheese with a mild, washed rind. It has a complex, fruity flavour with a subtle barny aroma. Perfect as a replacement for Raclette, or paired with an off-dry white wine. 

Sold by weight, $8.90/100g

Taleggio - Italy

Attention soft cheese lovers!! This stunning washed rind cheeses is one of my personal favourites. It is one of the oldest known cheeses to come from Italy, and is named after the caves of Val Taleggio. Its scent is quite strong and pungent, but the flavour is relatively mild with a fruity tang and lingering persistence. During the cheesemaking process, the cheese is washed with 5 different types of mold to create its rust coloured rind, and aged for 6-10 weeks. Pairs best with a light, unoaked red wine (such as Barbera), an off-dry wine such as Pinot Gris or Viognier, or Champagne Method Sparkling wines, such as Franciacorta or Cava.

Sold by weight, $8.50/100g

Kapuskasing Chevre - Ontario

One of my best sellers is Kapuskasing from Fromagerie Kapuskoise, up North in (you guessed it) Kapuskasing, Ontario. I've been eyeing the goats milk version (top) for quite a while, and decided 2024 is the year we try it out!

This cheese is slightly more tart than the "original" Kapuskasing (bottom), with the familiar light, salty, creamy flavour we know and love with its signature layer of vegetable ash throughout the center. Works beautifully in a salad or accompanied with fresh fruit, but can also stand its own on a cheese board. 

Goats milk is known for having a considerably lower amount of lactose than cows milk, so many people with lactose intolerance are able to tolerate goats cheeses without any issues! 

Sold by weight, $8.70/100g 

Roth Buttermilk Blue - Wisconsin, USA

Buttermilk Blue is made by Roth Cheeses in Wisconsin, USA with milk from local family farms. It;s an all natural cheese made with cows milk and vegetarian rennet. Buttermilk Blue uses a higher butterfat content than your "standard" blue cheeses, which results in a smoother and creamier texture. Slightly tangy, yet enjoyably mellow, this is a fantastic blue cheese for a steak, salad, or cheese board. 

Sold by weight, $8.50/100g

Blue Moo - Cow's Creamery, PEI

Blue Moo is a cream-forward, mild "beginner blue" - perfect for those wanting to venture out into the world of blue cheese! Even if you're a blue lover, this is a perfectly balanced blue sure to impress. It's rich and buttery, yet light and flavourful - a great choice for serving to a group of people. Blue Moo is a triple cream blue cheese made with 100% PEI dairy that is thermalized (warmed, but not pasteurized - leaving many of the great microbes and flavour compounds that give PEI cheeses their unique flavour) inspired by recipes from the Orkney Islands in Scotland. Cow's Creamery only started making this cheese at the beginning of 2022 but has already garnered some well-deserved attention around the country!

Sold by weight, $7.50/100g

Cow's Creamery 2017 Reserve Cheddar - PEI

Aged for an impressive 6 years, this delicious PEI cheddar is a real treat for the holidays!

The salty air and iron-rich soil of PEI give this aged cheddar a rich and full-bodied flavour with a tangy bite. The milk for this cheese is thermalized - not pasteurized - to give an even more complex depth of flavour. 

Perfect choice for a gift or to serve on a holiday cheese board!

Sold by weight, $8.00/100g

Perron 2015 Reserve Cheddar - Quebec

Sold by weight, $8.50/100g

Kapuskasing - Fromagerie Kapuskoise, Ontario

Named after the town in which the cheese is made, Kapuskasing (kah-pus-kay-sing) is based off of Morbier cheese from France. This cheese has a beautiful layer of vegetable ash in the center of the wheel, which is a classic cheesemaking technique from the Jura region in France. Cheesemaker Francois Nadeau was travelling in Asia, where cheese is scarce, and decided he wanted to pursue cheesemaking so he would never have to go without it. His new found passion brought him to Saint-Hyacinthe, Quebec for basic training, and then to France for more in depth training. Morbier, the cheese Kapuskasing is based on, was born from the by-products of Comte. Traditionally, cheesemakers would take the leftover curd from the morning milking and cover them with ashes to preserve them, and then did the same thing with the afternoon curd and pressed the cheese into Morbier. The cheese was so delicious, it is now produced with its own dedicated source of milk, but with the layer of ash in the middle to preserve the tradition.

These are FRIED MARCONA ALMONDS WITH TRUFFLE from Antonio Romero. Marcona Almonds are a sweet, gourmet type of almond grown in Spain that has a growing popularity around the world, but more specifically in the Mediterranean. Their texture is almost closer to that of a macadamia nut, and they're shaped a little differently from your "standard" almonds. Nutritionally, there is a minimal difference between Marcona and regular almonds, but in FLAVOUR?! Now that's a whole other story.

Marcona almonds are much sweeter, more moist, and softer than your typical almond, and it has a more buttery flavour. When paired with the dusting of truffle salt on these bad boys. O.M.G. they are amazing.

The cheese is big and bold, with strong blue flavour and a slight barnyard flavour profile. Not for the faint of heart, this cheese packs a big, blue punch!

Out of Stock: Mimolette (24 Month) - France

It’s been aged for 24 months with the help of some little critters (bear with me) called cheese mites!! Don’t worry, it’s nothing like Casu Marzu (don’t google that if you’re squeamish) but the cheese mites lend Mimolette its characteristic flavour around the rind. It’s rumoured to be originally made by the request of Louis XIV who wanted a French product to replace the then popular Edam from the Netherlands. The cheese is super rich, crumbly and reminiscent of a reaaalllyyyy old cheddar or gouda. It’s coloured bright orange by the addition of annatto, a classic cheese ingredient in pretty much any orange cheese. The perfect cheese for you aged-cheese-fanatics!

Out of Stock: Roquefort Carles - France

The King of Blues, this stunning Roquefort is made from the raw milk of Laucaune sheep and aged in the limestone caves of Combalou, France.

Out of Stock: Langres - France

Langres is a soft, washed rind cheese from the Champagne region in France. One of the huge tenets of pairings is "what grows together goes together", and this cheese is a fantastic example of that! The best way to serve Langres is by pouring some Champagne (or any traditional method sparkling wine) over the cheese and enjoying a glass of the wine with it. This cheese has a small dimple on the top, formally known as the "fontaine" (fountain in French, if you see where we're going with this) which is where you pour about 4oz of the wine onto the cheese and let it flow down around the wheel before you cut into it. The bubbles in the wine balance out the salty, fudgy richness of the cheese and compliment its funky, yeasty, biscuity flavour that is concentrated on the rind.

Out of Stock: Monte Enebro - Spain

Full flavoured and boldly goaty, Monte Enebro is a stunning goats milk cheese from just outside of Madrid in Spain. The rind of the cheese is not covered in ash as its appearance may seem, but it's actually ripened with pennicilium roqueforti - the same mold used in many blue cheeses! The main difference, is that instead of inoculating the cheese and spreading the mold throughout the interior, it is just used on the exterior, giving the cheese a spicy, peppercorn-like bite to complement the robust paste. Monte Enebro is only made by one producer in Spain, and has won countless awards around the world. Lovers of Grey Owl will surely appreciate this one!
