Cabot Clothbound Cheddar
United States
Cabot Clothbound Cheddar has a signature tang and caramel nuttiness with a rustic crystalline texture that becomes creamy on the palate.
Made from pasteurized cows milk the 32 pound wheels of bandaged cheddar are aged for approximately 12 months.
Clothbound is an approachable but complex natural-rind, bandaged cheddar with a crumbly texture and nutty aroma. The flavor is deeply savory and slightly tangy with caramel sweetness to the finish.
This savory-sweet balance of flavor makes a perfect match for charcuterie, apple jelly, or a rich chestnut honey.
Cabot Clothbound is made by Cabot Creamery and matured by Cellars at Jasper Hill. The milk comes from George Kempton's Farm in Peacham, Vermont. In.2003, Cabot Creamery asked Jasper Hill Farms to age a special batch of cheddar, sparking a revolutionary collaboration. After more than a decade the process has developed award winning cheese. After it comes to the Cellars the young cheese is coated in lard and an additional layer of cloth is added. The cheeses ripen in a specially calibrated vault in the Cellars, where they are constantly brushed, turned, and monitored for quality.
