Rogue River Blue is made only during autumn when, after grazing on lush pasture all summer, the cow's rich milk lends itself best to making this exquisite cheese. This cheese is wrapped in grape leaves that have been soaked in pear brandy. The leaves are hand-selected from local organic and biodynamic Cowhorn Vineyard. Rogue River Blue gained international recognition in 2003, when it bested European titans such as Roquefort and Stilton at the World Cheese Awards in London - the first American cheese to ever do so. Though now made from pasteurized milk, it later became the first American raw milk cheese to be exported to Europe. Rich & fudgy in texture, Rogue River Blue is creamy & fruity, with notes of vanilla, toffee, hazelnut and a distinct “blue” flavor. Truly a marvel!
