Nettle Meadow infuses Adiron-jack with a hint of New York State applejack brandy. This award-winning triple crème is rich, velvety, and dense with a melt-in-your-mouth texture. The flavor dances beautifully between freshly churned butter and fresh-from-the-orchard apple. This is one of Nettle Meadow’s creamiest cheeses, and t’s perfect for any event from park picnics to cozy dinner parties. Bring out the sweetness with Murray’s Honey Roasted Almonds.

Milk Salt, Apple Brandy, Rennet, Cultures

Adiron-jack is a triple-crème cheese, made by boosting the richness of cow’s milk with cream.
It’s a bloomy rind cheese, named for the white mold that “blooms” on the rind, which is responsible for breaking down the interior paste and creating its silky texture.
As the cheese ripens from the outside in, the proteins closest to the rind start to break down, forming a gooey creamline.
Applejack brandy got its name from its use of apples as well as from a distillation process called jacking.

Founded in 1990 by Lorraine Lambiase and Shelia Flanagan, New York’s Nettle Meadow farm is also an animal sanctuary that houses a menagerie of llamas, horses, donkeys, chickens, ducks, pigs, turkeys, cats, and rabbits.
Lorraine and Sheila both left legal careers to move closer to home and realize their dream of living on a farm, surrounded by animals.
Cheesemaker Sheila Flanagan transforms the farm's fresh goat and sheep milk to craft innovative, artisan cheeses.
Sheep and goats are fed a diet of natural ingredients, including grasses, hay, grains, wild herbs, raspberry leaf, and garlic to balance their nutritional needs.
A herd of working goats roams over 100 acres at a separate pasture close to Amsterdam, New York.
The animals are at the heart of the operation, their website features the pictures and names of many of their goats along with a description of their personalities.
