This washed-rind stunner from Jasper Hill is made with pasteurized cow’s milk and develops a pudgy, pudding-like texture as it ages. A mix of earthy, herbaceous flavors and a peaty, beefy aroma round out its multidimensional taste. Try Jasper Hill Farm Willoughby with B&R Farms Blenheim Apricots and a drizzle of honey to contrast its intense flavors with some sweetness.
“Willoughby is something of a benchmark cheese for me. First starting out in cheese, I was afraid to try the real stinkers and this one definitely ranks among them. Once I got over that and gave it a try though, I haven’t looked back. True cheeselovers will agree that this pungent, meaty washed rind is among the best smelly cheeses being made in the US right now. Try it with apples, Pâté De Campagne, and a crusty bread for my favorite take on a ploughman’s lunch.”

Located in the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont, Jasper Hill Farm is a dairy farm with an on-site creamery where they make and age a variety of well-loved cheeses.
The state-of-the-art Cellars at Jasper Hill Farm consist of 22,000 square-feet of underground space, where they ripen Jasper Hill Creamery cheeses as well as cheeses from other local producers.
Their farm team cuts and bails hay during summer to dry for winter months, ensuring their cows have local feed during the harsh Vermont winters.
Among other waste management projects, they feed leftover whey from cheesemaking to heritage breed pigs who live outside the cows’ pasture.
