Cheese: Vigneron
Country: Switzerland
Type: Raw Cow






















After a bit of a holiday hiatus JBW is back, though a day late this week, sort of. I had a coworker pick up some cheese for me yesterday as I was out of the office, and am enjoying it today. He snagged a chunk of Vigneron, sort of a Swiss version of cheddar. It's fairly mild, the rind is no where near as gnarly as the picture makes it look, it's wrapped in a thin black foil/paper. There was a slight grassy hint to the cheese which I think would go nicely with some apricot or plum preserves, and possibly one of the more bitter nuts (walnut maybe). Over all a pretty decent cheese.
