The Cypress Wheel is a soft-ripened, "double-cream" style cheese that is pure indulgence. It features a bloomy white rind and an interior that is buttery, silky, and luxuriously gooey. As it ages, it develops a slightly mushroomy flavor and a "runny" texture near the rind. It is the best American Brie-style cheese for a celebration. Because it’s made with grass-fed milk, it has a deeper yellow hue and a richer flavor than mass-produced French Bries. It is the "crowd-pleaser" wheel that makes any family gathering feel like a high-end event. The Recipes Recipe #1: Baked Cypress with Roasted Grapes Bake the Cypress Wheel in a small dish until molten and top with grapes roasted in balsamic. A decadent, shareable appetizer-for-dinner that friends will fight over. Recipe #2: The "Luxury" Roast Beef Panini Layer thin roast beef and thick slices of Cypress on ciabatta and press until the cheese oozes. The buttery cheese and savory beef create the world's best sandwich. The Appetizers Appetizer #1: Cypress & Strawberry Balsamic Bites Place a slice of the cheese on a baguette with a fresh strawberry and a drop of balsamic. A vibrant, creamy appetizer that looks stunning on a board. Appetizer #2: The "Gooey" Crostini Simply melt a slice of Cypress on a toast and top with a sprig of fresh thyme. Its simplicity highlights the high-quality cream used in the cheese.
