Deer Creek The Doe Cheddar

The Doe is a handcrafted, bandage-wrapped cheddar from Deer Creek infused with Madagascar Bourbon vanilla bean, resulting in a creamy cheddar with an aromatic vanilla-woody finish.

Flavor & Texture Profile:

  • Flavor: The base cheddar is a smooth, creamy, mild to medium cheddar that is overlaid by aromatic vanilla bean notes (rich, sweet-woody, slightly perfume-like) without being a dessert cheese in the overtly sweet sense.
  • Texture: Because it’s cloth-bound and vanilla marbled, texture should be firm but not ultra-hard; likely sliceable, with the vanilla bean specks adding visual interest and slight difference in body.

Pairings & Serving Suggestions:

  • Soft pairings: Coffee or hot chocolate.

  • Beer: Hard cider or nitro stout.

  • Wine: Chardonnay or Champagne.

  • Hard spirits: Bourbon or brandy.

  • Nibblies: Cashews, chocolate, shortbread cookies, baked ham, dried fruit, apple pie, fresh cherries or blueberries.

  • Serving tips: Bring the cheese to near room temperature for best aroma and flavor; slice or cube to show off the marbling; pair with one of the suggested accompaniments to highlight vanilla notes.

Ingredients: Pasteurized Milk, Salt, Vanilla, Enzymes, Cultures.
