This delicious smoked cheddar cheese starts with their signature raw cow's milk, known for its velvety texture and nuanced flavor. The wheels are then carefully cold smoked over hickory wood, imparting a distinctive, full-bodied profile.
Plymouth's smoked cheese offers a multi-sensory experience from the moment it's unwrapped. The golden hue of the cheddar hints at the depth of flavor within, while the subtle marbling showcases the artistry of the smoking process. As the brown wax rind is sliced, the aroma of the hardwood smoke is released, enticing the senses and preparing the palate for the rich and savory experience ahead.
The versatility of this cheese makes it an excellent addition to a variety of recipes. Whether enjoyed on its own or incorporated into dishes, it adds a meaty depth of flavor that enhances the overall dining experience. Pair it with crusty bread, dried fruits, and nuts for a sophisticated cheese board or melt it over grilled vegetables and burgers for a smoky twist. Smoked mac n cheese or anything au gratin also make ideal accompaniments for this gourmet ingredient.
A celebration of craftsmanship, flavor, and American cheese-making tradition, Plymouth not only prides itself on creating some of the finest Vermont cheeses but also in keeping the legacy of Plymouth alive. The second oldest cheese producer in the country, the first wheels from Plymouth were produced by none other than John Calvin Coolidge Sr., who built the facility that is still used today!
