Saxelby Cheese Verified independent store

→

Pronounced ‘Cay-oooga!’ This beautifully aged goats’ milk cheese ranges from supple and creamy to flaky and firm depending on its age. More of an aged goats’ milk tomme than a trad itional blue, Cayuga Blue varies greatly from wheel to wheel. It can be full of strong musky flavors, fruity and fermenty, or sometimes sweet and malty. Tense veins of blue mold run throughout the cheese, giving it an earthy, mineral tone. Pairing Suggestions: sweet, malty beers like brown ale and red ale, off-dry white wines like Riesling and Gewurztraminer, earthy red wines like Merlot and Syrah Recent Awards: ACS 2025 3rd Place, ACS 2024 2nd Place Blue-veined cheese with a rind made from goat, sheep, mixed, or other milks Show more
