This week’s Cheese of the Week: Prima Donna 🧀✨🇳🇱

This delicious cheese combines the famous Dutch art of gouda-style cheese making with the traditional flavor of Parmesan cheese. Not as dry but has touches of it in the flavour. Sweet, nutty with hints of caramel and butterscotch. The little crunchy crystals in the paste are a perfect textural balance to the creaminess of the cheese. The cheese shows its true character when grated in Mediterranean-style dishes. It’s perfect on a cheeseboard, good for grating, ideal on a grilled cheese and a good base for soups & sauces. It’s even lactose and gluten free.

Come try a sample and enjoy 25% off this beautiful Dutch cheese all week in Owen Sound, Port Elgin, or Meaford.

This week’s Cheese of the Week: Tomme de Monsieur Séguin! 🧀✨🐄🐐

Made with half pasteurized cow’s milk and half pasteurized goat’s milk, Tomme de Monsieur Séguin is a semi-soft cheese with a washed orange-brown rind, a supple, flexible interior, making for a fine blend of almond flavours and a subtle goaty finish.

Surface-ripened for over 6 weeks, it’s actually a blend of two other cheeses from the Quebec cheesemaker, Fromagerie Fritz Kaiser: Tomme du Haut Richelieu and Noyan.

Wanting to offer people a familiar name and because the cheese is partly composed of goat’s milk, the name of this cheese was inspired by an old children’s tale of Monsieur Séguin’s Goat.

This week’s Cheese of the Week: Stilton! 🧀🇬🇧

Stilton, often called the “King of English Cheeses,” is one of Britain’s most celebrated blue cheeses, protected by PDO status, traditionally crafted in Derbyshire, Leicestershire, and Nottinghamshire. Made from pasteurized cow’s milk, it has a rich ivory paste laced with striking blue-green veining that develops as the cheese matures. Stilton is semi-soft yet crumbly, with a luxuriously creamy texture that melts on the palate. Its flavor is bold and complex—earthy, tangy, and savory, with a subtle nuttiness and a lingering, slightly sweet finish. A classic partner to port w**e, Stilton also pairs beautifully with robust reds, crisp c***rs, or just a drizzle of honey.

Come try a sample and enjoy 25% off this classic British cheese all week in Owen Sound, Port Elgin, or Meaford.
