Murray's Cavemaster Reserve Barden Blue
A slice of Barden Blue is everything we imagine a perfect day at Vermont's picturesque Consider Bardwell Farm to be: mellow, grassy, and pleasantly full, with a sunshiney brightness. The newest cheese in Consider Bardwell's line-up, Barden Blue's buttery flavor and bright, golden hue can be traced to the best raw, local cow's milk delivered each morning straight to the cheesemaking room. The carefully controlled bluing, which lends the cheese its ever-so-slight peppery edge, comes about as a result of the cheesemaker's attention to quality and detail, as well as the combined dedication of Murray's and Consider Bardwell to exceptional aging conditions, first in the aging caves on Consider Bardwell's 19th-century farm before being finished by our cave team, coaxing a deep minerality and chocolately depth from the gently pressed curds. Pair with an understated saison for pastoral perfection.
