cheese news

In the aging caves at our Rittenhouse location, choice cheeses are washed in beer, cider, wine,and brine to yield one-of-a-kind flavors. And sometimes, we partner with amazing cheesemakersfor super special creations!

THIS MONTH’S FEATURE: WHISKEY BUSINESS

THE CHEESE: Our exclusive relationship with cheese genius Soyoung Scanlan of Andante Dairy in California has, yet again, yielded something delicious! Contraltois a soft, washed-rind goat’s milk cheese wrapped inspruce bark.

THE WASH: Dad’s Hat Rye Whiskey uses only rye grain and malt to deliver a pure expression of the taste of classic Pennsylvania Rye Whiskey. Once Contralto is soaked in this smooth and spicy bath, it creates an epic conglomeration of flavors!

AVAILABILITY: Whiskey Business will be available at the beginning of December but stayed tuned to social media for the exact date!
