What happens when you marry old world cultures and cave-aged technique with quality milk production in the Green Mountains of Vermont? The cheese mongers at Jasper Hill did exactly that, and came up with Vault No. 5 Cave Aged Cheese.

Toasty and aromatic, Jasper Hill Vault No. 5 Cave Aged Cheese was inspired by Swiss and Italian mountain cheeses—delightfully creamy, toasty and savory, with subtle earthy notes. It’s cave aged for a minimum of one year, a process that allows a natural rind to form around its golden, straw colored paste. In short, it’s the stuff cheesy dreams are made of.

Let this Cave Aged Cheese warm to room temperature, and you’ll be rewarded as its dense, pliant texture gives way to an ultra-buttery mouthfeel with each bite. If you manage not to eat all of it right off the cheese board—and we wouldn’t blame you if you did—try it melted on a grilled cheese sandwich or burger. It’d be right at home paired with a glass of Agoston Garnacha & Syrah, or Drive Thru Red Dry Hopped Red Ale.

Jasper Hill Vault No. 5 Cave Aged Cheese is available in our cheese cases this month only, until we run out.
