Mystic Cheese Co. Melinda Mae

At only 11 days old, Melinda Mae might be young, but she is full of flavor. Mushroom notes may rule at first taste, but beneath those earthy, brothy layers lay a hint of lemon and leeks. Toasty notes of baked bread linger on the palate as the pudgy, luscious paste melts over the tongue. While not as funky as farmhouse Brie or Italian Robiola, Melinda Mae appeals to fans of both. A dollop of apricot jam or a drizzle of lemon curd make it easy to finish this cheese in one sitting, much like it's namesake.
