Mild
Bold

Crafted with care at Sweet Grass Dairy, this award-winning pimento cheese blends shredded tomme-style cheese, Sir Kensington’s Mayo, smoky Spanish piquillo peppers, and pimentón.

Creamy, slightly spicy, and endlessly dippable, this spread earned First Place from the American Cheese Society. It's a true taste of the South, elevated by responsible farming practices.

Best Bite: Pimento, Coppa & Nuts

This bite is all about balance, with the bold, tangy richness of pimento cheese at the center. The creamy, peppery spread is complemented by the savory depth of coppa and the satisfying crunch of nuts. A savory nut, like garlic almonds, enhances the cheese’s sharpness, while a sweet nut, like praline pecans, rounds out the bite with a subtle caramelized contrast.

Serving Tip: Place this combination in the center of your board with a small spoon for easy scooping—it's a guaranteed crowd-pleaser! For a cozy twist, heat the mixture until it’s slightly melty and serve it as a warm dip.

Georgia Tomme

Raw Cow’s Milk • Semi-Hard

Thomasville, Georgia
Mild
Bold

Made in Georgia, this raw cow’s milk tomme is crafted in the style of a French farmhouse table cheese. This natural-rinded, semi-soft cheese is aged for at least 60 days, developing a creamy texture with subtle earthy complexity. A natural rind cheese is a cheese that develops its outer crust naturally as it ages, rather than being coated or wrapped. This family-run farm uses milk from cows that graze on grass year-round. Their commitment to quality is evident in every batch, reflecting the unique terroir of the South.

Pro Tip: This is a natural rinded cheese. You may occasionally ambient mold on the rind. If you spot any, simply scrape it off and enjoy the cheese as usual. ** See Below for More Information **

Best Bite: Georgia Tomme, Southern Chorizo & Spiced Peach Bourbon Jam

This bite is a bold balance of creamy, smoky, and sweet—Georgia Tomme’s buttery, earthy notes mellow out the spiced heat of Southern Chorizo, while the bright, tangy-sweet kick of Spiced Peach Bourbon Jam cuts through the richness. Every layer works in harmony, creating a perfect contrast of nutty, savory, and fruity flavors that keep you coming back for more.

Also try with Raspberry Mostarda to create a dynamic contrast of flavors—mild and rich meets bold and zesty.

Serving Tip: This is a natural rinded cheese, meaning it develops its own edible exterior as it ages. Because of this, you may occasionally notice a bit of ambient mold on the rind—this is completely normal and part of the natural aging process. If you spot any, simply scrape it off and enjoy the cheese as usual. The rind itself is edible; however, if you do not care for the flavor or texture, feel free to discard it.

*** cont.***
Georgia Tomme is a gravity-pressed cheese with a rind formed and populated with the natural flora of our aging environments. This flora can consist of any combination of off-white, gray, brown, red, orange, black, blue, and green. The rind can range from firm and dry, to slightly tacky and orange. Small holes/cracks in the rind can be present, resulting in the formation of spots of colorful micro-flora just beneath the rind surface.This is not a Food Safety risk and can be cut away and discarded.

Ingredients: Raw cow’s milk, cultures, rennet, sea salt.

Southern Chorizo

Rockport, Maine
Mild
Bold

Bold and smoky, this chorizo is made with Southwestern peppers, such as sweet bell peppers and ancho peppers, to add a unique Southern twist to a classic. Handcrafted in Mid-Coast Maine, it is made using wild fermentation and cultured with koji to create truly exceptional flavors.

Pro Tip: Peel casing off prior to eating. Use a serrated knife to cut thin slices before plating.

Best Bite: Southern Chorizo, Pimento cheese & crunchy nuts

This pairing works particularly well because of the mix of fat, spice, acidity, and umami, making the pairing exciting rather than overpowering.

Serving Tip: For the best texture and flavor, we recommend peeling off the beef casing before enjoying your chorizo. Beef casings are naturally thicker and more durable, which helps protect the chorizo during the curing process, but they can be tough and chewy when eaten. Removing the casing allows you to fully enjoy the rich, smoky flavors and ensures a more enjoyable bite. Simply slice the chorizo and gently peel away the casing before serving.

Ingredients: pork, hard cider, chile,sugar, fermented garlic (garlic, water, salt, sugar) potassium nitrate, lactic acid, starter culture, koji, beef casing
