Whiskey traces its roots to the origin of the distilling process, invented by the Celts in the British Isles. It is not known exactly when the first whiskey was produced, as some say the 10th century while others say the 15th century. There are several spellings of the original word - uisge beatha (Scots Gaelic) and usquebaugh (Irish) are just two. It is pronounced wee-ska-bah, which means "water of life." Produced in Great Britain and Ireland, the recipe was brought by the Scottish and Irish settlers to North America. Whiskey can be smoky, rich, oaky, sweet, peaty, spicy - and always warming. Whether bourbon's your drink, single malts, or just plain old whiskey is your pleasure, we have chosen 4 of the most versatile cheeses to match with this amber "water of life".
  • Caveman Blue by Rogue Creamery: Caveman Blue is a fruity, raw milk blue with slight vanilla tones and a texture full of butter and calcium lactate crystals. On the finish, Caveman has nuances of bacon, grass, and hay. Made in the USA. (1/2 lb )
  • Grafton Smoked Cheddar: This cheddar is bathed in the cool smoke from smoldering hard maple wood for four to six hours at the end of the aging period. What taste could be more typical of Vermont? The smoky, almost bacon-y flavor of this cheese makes it a wonderful complement to whiskey. (1/2 lb )
  • Artikaas Gouda - Aged 5 Years: This gouda (called Pittig in Holland) is both intense and complex. Like a fine wine, maturity has been generous to this gouda, lending it nuances other cheeses only dream of...Made in the Netherlands. (1/2 lb )
  • Brie: Delicious, authentic, extra creamy Brie from France. (7 oz)
  • Dalmatia Dried Fig Spread: Rich in hand-picked Adriatic Figs grown along the Dalmatian Coast of Croatia. A perfect foil to your cheese. (8.5 oz)
  • Raincoast Crisps: A toasty, nutty flavor with a slightly sweet finish. Made in Canada. (6 oz)

Please Note: Whiskey is NOT included.

What’s the best way to store my cheese?
The best way to keep cheese fresh is to store it in the vegetable crisper in your fridge. Before doing so, wrap in parchment or wax paper, then wrap loosely in plastic wrap. You can also buy our exclusive cheese storage bags, specially created to keep your cheese fresher, longer.

Unless used for cooking, we don’t recommend storing cheese in the freezer as this will alter its texture.

What is the best temperature to serve my cheese?
Remove cheese from the fridge an hour before serving, as cheese is best experienced at room temperature to enjoy the full spectrum of flavors.

How long will my cheese stay fresh in the refrigerator?
The length of time cheeses last in the fridge after opening depends largely on the type of cheese. Soft varieties tend to spoil more quickly than hard varieties. Please refer to the table below for a convenient reference:

How We Ship

FreshWave Packaging

Our products are always shipped so they will arrive at your door in optimal condition! We’ve carefully selected packaging options that have minimal impact on the environment without compromising on food safety or quality. 

For perishable orders, we line our shipping boxes with Tempguard - a unique, padded insulator made of 100% pre-consumer recycled paper material. We further control the temperature with recycled kraft paper fill and non-toxic frozen gel packs. In the summer months, we may include dry ice to ensure fresh delivery in very hot weather.

Note: Please join our efforts to be mindful of our environment and extend the life-cycle of our packaging, by recycling your shipping box, Tempguard liner, and kraft fill (all 100% curbside recyclable!). Store the gel packs in your freezer and reuse to keep your next picnic or road trip fare cool.
