Sweeter than your average cheddar, Murray's High Plains Cheddar is the product of generations of Midwestern cheesemaking know-how. A family of Mennonite cheesemakers drew inspiration from classic, Alpine-style cheeses to create a creamy, crumbly cheddar with plenty of fruity, toasty notes. Balance out its sweetness with some Brooklyn Cured Smoked Beef Salami and Murray's Bread & Butter Pickle Chips.
“This is basically the cheese version of a candy bar—it’s a little sweet with some crunchy tyrosine crystals. Take one bite and you'll be in serious danger of eating the entire piece. Fold it into some mac & cheese for a sweet kick, or spread on a sandwich with ham, mustard, and cornichons for a savory contrast.”
Allergens: Milk
- Murray’s High Plains Cheddar is a cross between Alpine-style cheese and cheddar, meaning it shares characteristics of cheeses like Gruyère as well as cheddar.
- The cheese is made by a family of Midwestern Mennonite cheesemakers, who capture the nutty, sweet flavors of Alpine-style cheeses in their distinctly American cheddar.
- It’s creamy and crumbly, made from cow’s milk sourced from small, local Amish dairy farms.
- None of these farms have more than 65 cows, and the herds graze on local pastures.
- The toasty, fruity flavor profile of this cheese is best accented with a sweet strawberry jam or a glass of Rosé.
