Curated Cheeses & Meats

We've handpicked a selection of meats and cheeses from small-scale artisans. Find your meats and cheeses within the list to learn more about your curation!

Harbison

Cow’s Milk • Bloomy Rind

Greensboro, Vermont
Mild
Bold

Crafted at Jasper Hill Farm in Vermont’s Northeast Kingdom, this award-winning, soft-ripened cheese is wrapped in a band of spruce cambium harvested from local woodlands, which lends subtle woodsy notes while supporting its luscious, spoonable texture. Beneath its bloomy rind, the paste is rich, buttery, and perfectly dippable—like a mini fondue. Simply slice off the top and scoop away!

You’ll likely notice blue-green mottling on the spruce bark. This is a microflora intentionally left on the bark and is totally harmless. If you prefer, you may wipe it away with a dry or slightly damp cloth.

Best Bite: Scoop this luscious cheese and drizzle honey over the top, then pair it with a dried Sierra fig. The honey’s floral sweetness enhances Harbison’s rich, buttery texture, while the fig’s concentrated fruitiness brings out its subtle woodsy and mushroomy notes.

You may also enjoy it with strawberry jam for a citrusy complement or dark chocolate-covered almonds for a hint of bittersweet contrast.

Keep the spruce bark intact! It helps the cheese maintain its structure. To serve, gently slide a knife around the top rind and lift it off to reveal the luscious, spoonable interior. Let it sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before serving.

Triple Crème Brie

Cow's Milk • Soft-Ripened

Mild
Bold

Its delicate bloomy rind gives way to a silky, almost whipped interior with a mild, buttery flavor. True to its name, Triple Crème Brie is made by adding extra cream to the milk during production, creating an ultra-lush texture with a decadent, melt-in-your-mouth quality.

You may also enjoy it with strawberry jam for a balanced blend of sweet, tangy, and creamy.

For the best texture and flavor, let Brie rest at room temperature for 30–45 minutes before serving. This allows its creamy interior to soften fully, enhancing its rich, buttery consistency.

Belgian-Style Witbier

Its effervescence also helps cleanse the palate between rich, creamy bites.

Brut Champagne or Crémant
