Cheese Of The Month Collection

Each month, Petrossian offers a collection of three of the world's finest gourmet cheeses. The selection changes at the end of the month, so make sure to check back often to see our latest trio.

February's Cheese of the Month Collection includes:

Affidelice - 7-ounce piece
Affidelice is a washed-rind cow’s milk cheese from the Chablis region in France; it is very similar to Epoisses, which is made in the same region. Its name, Affidelice, comes from the marriage of two words: affine (ripe) and delice (delight). Affidelice is soft, with a moist, terracotta-colored rind, and is contained in a small, wooden box. Here, at the Artisanal Premium Cheese Center, we continue the maturation process, washing Affidelice at least three times with Chablis. The resulting cheese has a soft, pungent, spoonable paste and satiny texture. Pair Affidelice with Chardonnay or Champagne.

Capra Ubriaco al Traminer - 7.5 ounce wedge

Made by the Perenzin family in the Dolomite mountains of the Veneto, this cheese is made from the organic milk of goats that live in the purest of environments: the air is filtered by the surrounding mountains, and the terrain is completely secluded. Ubriaco, which means drunken, is so named because this semi-hard, goat’s cheese is aged in Traminer grape must. Aged a minimum of 6 months (3 in must), this cheese is an obvious match for wine. Try it with a Valpolicella or Prosecco, both produced in the Veneto.

Mahon - 7.5-ounce wedge

Mahon, from the island of Menorca, is one of a few cow's milk cheeses from Spain. Mahón boasts a certain sharpness, and its lemony, salty flavors evince the rural Mediterranean seascape. Its rind contains a hard, crumbly cheddar-like texture and darkens as the wheels age. At peak, Mahón is tangy, intense and delicious. Pair this cheese with Madeira or Tempranillo.

In March, our selection will be: Laurier, Meadow Creek Mountaineer, and Majorero Pimenton. Click Here for the upcoming cheese schedule, as well as detailed tasting notes.
