Maytag Bleu Cheese Wheel
THIS PRODUCT IS ONLY IN STOCK CERTAIN TIMES OF YEAR AND MAY TAKE UP TO 2 WEEKS FOR DELIVERY
2lb. wheel
Cave aged creamy bleu-cheese. Beautiful aqua marbling set against snow-white paste. Perfect for salads. Exceptional when melted onto a burger and enjoyed with an ale or lager. Try it for yourself and you will see why Maytag Blue Cheese ranks as one of the world's best blue cheeses!
Penicillium Roquefortine spores are added to the completed product which gives Maytag Blue Cheese its distinctive green veining. Maytag Blue Cheese is then aged in caves located in the hills of the Maytag Dairy Farm, where it is exposed to cool temperatures with high levels of humidity.
The result is an award winning artisanal cheese that is moist and creamy yet crumbly in texture that is slightly pungent with a lemony finish. Each wheel and wedge of Maytag Blue Cheese is hand-wrapped in decorative foil.
PAIRS WELL WITH
Big, bold blues as well as milder wedges go surprisingly well with all sorts of drinks. In Wisconsin, we normally pair our blues with cider or beer -- everything from fruit beers, stout, weiss beer, porter and Belgian ales get along famously with blue. In the world of wine, we recommend cabernet sauvignon, chianti, pinot noir, zinfandel, riesling, syrah/shiraz, ice wines and malbec. For higher-proof hankerings, reach for the port, madeira, tequila reposado or tequila añejo.
Due to the perishable nature of our products, we do not ship over the weekend. Most orders placed Thursday-Sunday will ship the following Monday, unless Saturday delivery is available in your area. We will notify you with a tracking number once your package ships.
