We’re back!! lucy’s whey reopened our doors last Friday, February 13th and we welcomed many of our friends back after our 6 weeks of rest, renovation and cheese research! Our new charcuterie and olive counter is beautiful and filled with delicious American-made, handcrafted salami from Creminelli Fine Meats in Seattle and yummy olives from an organic olive grove in Napa, California. We invite you to stop in to visit us and to taste some of these new and delicious products!

 On the cheese front, we are proud to be carrying a new cheese called “Big Eds” - a cow’s milk cooked curd, firm cheese that is reminiscent of a Swiss Emmental. This yummy cheese comes from Saxon Creamery in Wisconsin -one of the area’s newest farmstead artisans. An environmentally friendly and virtually organic creamery, the farm’s cows practice rotational grazing and with the exception of extremely cold days, they can be found out in the pastures foraging on grass. This healthy system creates rich, creamy, beautiful milk which is then turned into the farm’s delicious cheeses. Pop in to try a bite of “Big Ed” - you won’t be disappointed!!

Another “newbie” to the lucy’s whey cheese counter is Cabot Creamery’s Clothbound Cheddar. A world-class cheddar that rivals any of its British counterparts, this cheese is mellow and deep and certainly deserves to be on the plate of any American collection. Cabot Creamery, a cooperative that was started in 1919 is located in Montpelier, Vermont and an interesting note about this particular cheese that the dairy produces is that it is carefully aged in the caves at Jasper Hill Farm - another farm that produces incredible cheeses. We encourage you to stop in and try a piece of the Cabot Cheddar and see what you think for yourself!

Speaking of Jasper Hill Farm, Winnimiere fans control yourselves - they are here but are in short supply! Creamy, gooey and simply scrumptious it takes all the will power we have not to eat them ourselves so HURRY IN!!!!! Also back from Jasper Hill are the delectable Twig Farm Fuzzy’s. These raw goat and cow’s milk tomme’s have a lovely cheesecake texture with a mushroomy flavor and are also of very limited availability.

See you soon we hope!
