The Cheese Club at the Co-op

Cheese pickup will be once a month around the 15th.

December's cheese of the month is Wyfe of Bath

Cheese club members will receive an email when the cheese comes in. Your cheese will be in the walk-in with your name on it!
Wyfe of Bath is made by The Bath Soft Cheese Co. in Bath, England, UK.
​
"Wyfe of Bath is a traditional English farmhouse cheese, matured for 4–6 months to develop a rich, layered character. Its deep golden paste and silky texture reveal a firm yet bouncy cheese that melts in the mouth, reminiscent of a classic Gouda.
The flavour is indulgent and complex: grassy, buttery, and nutty at first, with sweet caramel and umami notes unfolding alongside occasional bright hints of pineapple. Its fudgy, creamy richness evokes the aroma of buttercups and sunlit summer meadows, while the balanced texture ensures a satisfying bite every time.
Inspired by Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales, Wyfe of Bath offers a taste of old England with every slice. Its style echoes the cheeses historically crafted by farmers’ wives from soured milk, preserving the authentic farmhouse character and heritage."
From the Bath Soft Cheese Co. website.
Made from pasteurized cow's milk.
