Smoked Cheddar

Smoked Cheddar is our traditionally aged medium cheddar with a distinct smoky flavor. Slices and grates well. Serve with sausage on a snack tray or add to a macaroni and cheese recipe for a flavorful twist.

Natural Smoked Cheddar Cheese

Product Description: Natural Smoked Cheddar Cheese offers a distinct flavor profile characterized by its smoky undertones.  The smokiness complements the cheddar’s rich, nutty, and slightly tangy flavors.

Pairings and Complementary Flavors:

Cocktails: Manhattan, Whiskey Sour, Mezcal Martini, Old Fashioned, Apple Cider Cocktail
~ The sweetness and depth of a bourbon Manhattan match the rich and smoky cheddar harmoniously.
~ The tangy citrus notes of Whiskey Sour provide a refreshing counterpoint, while a Mezcal Martini, with its smoky notes, will resonate with those in the cheese.
~ The caramel notes from the bourbon in a classic Old Fashioned are a nice balance to the smoky and tangy flavors of the cheddar.
~ An Apple Cider Cocktail with crisp apple flavor complements the cheese and cuts through the richness, offering a perfect match.

Wine: Pinot Noir, Red Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon, Chardonnay, Riesling
~ A lighter Pinot Noir with flavors of cherry, mushroom, and earthy notes provides a balanced contrast.
~ The fruity and spicy profile of Red Zinfandel complements the smoky and tangy qualities of the cheese.
~ A full-bodied Cabernet Sauvignon with bold tannins and dark fruit flavors stands up to the robust cheddar.
~ An oaked Chardonnay, with its buttery and toasty notes, harmonizes with the smoky flavors of the cheese.
~ With its sweetness and acidity, a slightly off-dry Riesling can balance the saltiness and offer an effervescent pairing.

Beer: Porter, Saison, Pilsner, Amber Ale, IPA
~ A robust Porter pairs wonderfully with the smokiness of the cheddar.
~ With a light fruity and slightly spicy profile, a farmhouse Saison can be a refreshing counterpoint.
~ The balanced profile of Amber Ale, with its malt sweetness and hop bitterness, can harmonize with the smoky and tangy qualities of the cheese.
~ An IPA, with bitterness and hops, is a suitable contrast to this rich and creamy cheddar.

Accompaniments: fruits, sweets, nuts, olives
~ Apples or pears contrast refreshingly. Dried apricots, honey, maple syrup, or figs provide a sweet counterpoint. Dark chocolate is a unique and delightful pairing.
~ Almonds, walnuts, or pecans add crunch and earthy flavors.
~ Briny olives complement the creamy texture and smoky taste of Smoked Cheddar.

Suggested uses:

  • Great choice for a cheeseboard
  • Adds a smoky twist and depth of flavor to a grilled cheese sandwich, macaroni and cheese, burgers, pizza, omelets, frittatas, potato dishes, salads, pasta, or risotto.
  • Use in soups and sauces.
  • A rich and smoky addition to homemade savory breads, muffins, and scones.
