What is Appalachian Cheese?
Appalachian is an artisanal cheese produced by Meadow Creek Dairy in the small town of Galax, Virginia, in the United States. It is made using raw milk from their own herd of Jersey cows. This lightly cooked, pressed-curd cheese is aged for 60 days, during which the wheels develop a white coat of Penicillium molds, enhancing its unique flavor. The texture is velvety and melt-in-your-mouth, while the taste offers notes of lemon, buttery overtones, and a mushroomy earthiness.
Appalachian is an excellent addition to a cheese plate or pairs wonderfully with bread. Its superb melting quality makes it versatile for use in a variety of dishes. The cheese pairs beautifully with a crisp white wine or a smooth lager.
Extra-Aged Appalachian is a longer-aged version of Appalachian, matured for over eight months in the cellars. The extended aging intensifies its taste and flavor, adding overtones of toasted butter and a tangy, smooth finish. The texture is firm yet velvety, melting delicately on the tongue.
