Although its moniker and mold-riddled exterior imply a lack of refinement, these wheels are anything but. A rugged natural rind allows the Caveman to release a bit of moisture and develop a thick, buttery texture. During its maturation, luscious cow milk and blue cultures are transformed to a golden-hued paste that tastes of sweet, fresh buttermilk with hints of tropical fruit, grass and hay.
Inspired by a sense of place for over 85 years, Rogue Creamery draws from the beauty and flavors of Southern Oregon’s Rogue River Valley to create a variety of hand-milled cheddar cheeses. These cheeses are all Certified Organic by Oregon Tilth, vegetarian-friendly, and made with premium, pasteurized, rBST-free cow’s milk that is Animal Welfare Review Certified by Validus.
We hand-cut and wrap this cheese in wedges of 8 ounces and 1 pound and you can also purchase an entire wheel of approx. 5 pounds.
Ingredients:USDA certified organic pasteurized cows milk, salt, enzymes, cheese cultures, penicillium roqueforti.
