LA PANZANELLA - Croccantini Original Crackers

"Geit-in-Stad" (goat-in-the-city) is a delicious Dutch goat cheese.  Five hundred years after the early Dutch settlers made their home in New York, Artisanal brought this wonderful cheese to its original caves in New York City (hence its name). This cheese has a smooth firm texture that practically melts in your mouth leaving a sweet mild aftertaste, compared to the far more familiar and stronger flavored cow versions. Certainly an excellent candidate for an introduction to the goat cheese family that can be enjoyed on its own and is perfect for those who are lactose intolerant.  

From the great cheese makers at Nettle Meadow comes this luxurious jersey cow triple creme cheese. Infused with a hint of NYS Apple Jack brandy this cheese is buttery and smooth. This cheese pairs well with blood orange marmalades, pickled spruce tips, or a vibrant local honey as well as amber ales or mead.
