Comments about Cypress Grove Midnight Moon:

This is the perfect cheese for someone who loves a sharp and flavorful cheese that melts in your mouth. The texture is firm but does not crumble when sliced very thin. The wax casing ensures that every bite of this cheese is the same consistent taste and texture.

Not Your Average Creamy Goat!

By Holly, the Cheese-Every-Night-Woman

from Milford, CT on 3/2/2007

Pros:

Firm, Flavorful, Rich

Best Uses:

Hor d'oevre, Melted, Salads, Sandwiches

Bottom Line:

Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Comments about Cypress Grove Midnight Moon:

Maybe it's the aging, but I really enjoyed this. Most goat cheeses are too soft for me...plus they often taste like....GOAT! This offering has a firmer, subtler texture with just a hint of the milky goat essence. Not wrapped in herbs, chocolate powder or cellophane, this is a winner!
