Located in: Cheese, Canada
If you enjoy our Vintage Canadian Cheddar, then you love this cheddar aged for another three years. This seven year old Cheddar is a firmly pressed cheese with a hard, homogenous texture. The cheese begins life with a flexible texture and slightly acidic, buttery sweet taste. The fat, protein, minerals and ashes gradually break down during the fermentation and aging process, which intensifies the flavors and firms and dries the texture. Made in Quebec, this Cheddar does not contain food coloring. Instead, it showcases a lovely, off-white color. Still full-flavored; more intense and tangier than its younger sibling. This is igourmet's oldest cheddar.
  • Made from pasteurized cow's milk.
  • Photo depicts whole 42 lb. form of cheese.

Comments about Quebec 7 Year Vintage Cheddar:

Surprised at how much I liked this Cheddar. Thought it might be too strong, but it really grew on me! Very firm, and a "mature" cheddar taste - if you like mild cheddar, this is not for you. Loved it!

My son accidentally used this make make nachos. Everyone at the table was commenting on how wonderful they were that night. Then I discovered the mystery of the greatness. But truthfully, the cheese stands even better on it's own. A great flavor.

Comments about Quebec 7 Year Vintage Cheddar:

This cheese is so delicious. I will be ordering more. I took it to a prty with various other cheese trays and mine was gone in 10 minutes, while the other languished. This is truely a remarkable product. Sharp as a tack, and I am a coniseuer (sp)of fine sharp cheese. I am also a health nut!!! i am so impressed with this cheese because the Canadians don't use rBGH (recombinant bovine growth hormone) American cheese (and most dairy products)are poisonous. I jsut can't wait to order and consume more of this truely fine product.
