Inspired by the French cheese Morbier, Ashbrook is easily identified by its yellow paste and thin layer of blue-green vegetable ash running through its center. Using raw milk from their partners, Fox Valley Farm and Jericho Hill Farm, Ashbrook is lightly washed as it ages for three months. The result is a pungent, semi-soft cheese that is lactic, bright and slightly sweet with a decidedly funky finish. Try pairing with a slightly sour Berliner Weisse or an acidic Pinot Noir.
