We’d like to introduce you to Stripey Joe, a marvelously multi-hued English cheese, new to our cheese case. Actually, if we’re being entirely accurate, Trader Joe’s Stripey Joe is four English cheeses, luxuriously layered on top of one another to create a Stripey masterpiece. Crafted for us by a small, family-owned creamery in Northwest England, this savory supergroup is made with Cheshire, Cheddar, Double Gloucester and Red Leicester, arranged in alternating layers of yellow, orange, and white. Each bite will take your taste buds on a tour of the English countryside, where you’ll savor some of the most celebrated cheeses from across the British Isles. Individually, each of Joe’s stripes is creamy, salty, and sharp in its own, unique way. When eaten all together, those subtle differences compose a kind of culinary harmony suited for melting over burgers, grating over a salad, or simply enjoying on its own, paired with a frosty Howling Gourds Pumpkin Ale. Those stripes also provide some visual appeal on a charcuterie board or cheese plate.
