We have another cheese to recommend from Dancing Cow Farm in Vermont.
Bourree is a washed rind, raw cow's milk cheese.
Here's how the cheesemakers describe it.
"Bourree is washed rind cheese with an earthy aroma, supple paste and a
rich, creamy texture that melts into a beautiful smoky, meaty,
lingering finish. Bourree is made from raw cow's milk, un-cooled, from
only a single milking. The name Bourree comes from a French peasant
dance with rapid foot movements, much like the cows when first turned
out into lush, green spring pasture. Bourree is aged at the Cellars at Jasper Hill a minimum of eighty days and available directly from them. Bourree was a 2008 American Cheese Society winner."
As you can see from the tag in the photo, we bought it at Whole Foods but it is available at other fine cheese stores like those listed below.
Here's a favorite cheese book.
