Anyone have recommendations for some cheddar to try? I haven't eaten it in years since I discovered dubliner, which basically just seems like cheddar but more delicious to me, but I'm sure I'm just uninformed.
- Malic 3y agoHook's (out of Mineral Point, WI) 5-years aged cheddar is a good place to start. These are the folks that due to a warehouse/cheese-cave clerical error discovered they had a few cases of 20-years aged cheddar. Seriously, it was very good and in no way disgusting. https://hookscheese.com/ https://hookscheese.com/
- keep_reading 3y agoI've talked to the Hooks folks, and they have disaster recovery storage plan for their cheese spread throughout the country to survive various natural disasters. edit: 15yr Hooks is heavenly too
- jasonpeacock 3y agoGet yourself some Cougar Gold, it's amazing. Yeah, I know, "it's in a can" but it doesn't matter. In fact, get a couple of cans and shove some into the back of your fridge to age for a year or three and it becomes even more amazing! https://creamery.wsu.edu/cougar-cheese/flavors/ https://creamery.wsu.edu/cougar-cheese/flavors/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cougar_Gold_cheese https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cougar_Gold_cheese
- thot_experiment 3y agoI'm sold on the can, that's great. Thanks!
- Avshalom 3y agoYeah absolutely recommend all the WSU cheeses.
- deanCommie 3y agoIf you shop at Costco, try their aged Balderson cheddar - 2 years or older. Incredible! (Though that may be canada-only, I'm sure the US Costco carries something similarly great)
- thot_experiment 3y agoI get my dubliner at costco, I'll keep a lookout for this, thank you!

- manicennui 3y agoThere are better cheddars out there, but Kerrygold is widely available in the US. Get the product with the most aging, at least a year.
