Widmers 10 Year Cheddar Cheese 1 LB

10-years aged cheddar is not easy to find. This is a very special cheese. It tastes amazing, and arrived *cold* from the seller, even here in Miami.Look, please don't buy this cheese to melt and make a grilled cheese, like some of the reviews say they did. Sure, it will be great. But that's not why you buy a 10-years aged cheddar. The texture and unique flavor is why you pay more money for this unique cheese. If you melt this on a piece of bread or on a cracker, you lose some of the flavor, and you certainly lose the crumbly texture.I highly recommend buying this cheese, at almost any price.

Slight crystaling and amazing flavor. Even if you only buy it once it is worth every penny. We have started a cheese frenzy by sharing this.

This aged cheddar has a wonderful bite to it. We used it sparingly to make it last, but could easily finish it in a couple days. Its really delicious.

This is an intense, sharp yellow cheddar. Great umami flavor that comes only with good starting quality and serious age. It is a straddle between crumbliness and melting properties. For me it is better suited for gourmet mac-n-cheese or a great cheeseburger than for a charcuterie plate. Ten-year-aged cheddar is uncommon. That said there are nationally distributed three-and-five-year cheddars from New York, Vermont and Oregon that equal or surpass (in some respects) this cheese. In comparing great cheddars I have to regard price as a consideration and this cheese is very very expensive and does not deliver the superiority that should accompany the price. Maybe I was expecting too much.

We have this to friends for Christmas and they absolutely loved it.

I love alone as a snack. Why share the wonderful taste with a cracker or whatever?

The cheese comes well packaged , it comes promptly, and best of all I love the aged cheese !

Absolutely delicious
