Eugene
Each wheel is made by hand, and every wedge is cut and packed by hand — so listed weights are approximate, and your actual weight may vary slightly.
A briny aged tomme, washed in stout.
Flavor & Pairings
It has an umami and briny complexity, reminiscent of a clothbound cheddar. Pair it with Mast Landing Gunner’s Daughter stout- the same beer we wash these rinds with- and Maraschino cherries for a decadent flavor bomb! Can be grated or crumbled for a variety of culinary uses.
The Rind
A rich brown color with the delicate imprint of cheese cloth.
The Paste
The paste is drier and crumbles easily, with some mechanical openings. Color can vary from white to golden, depending on whether the cows were grazing on fresh pastures rich in beta-carotene in the summer months or dried hay in the winter months.
Behind the Name
This cheese is dedicated to the memory of Liz’s uncle, Eugene (“Gene”) Schueler.
Ingredients
Raw Jersey cow milk (Spring Brook Farm in Reading, VT), salt, calf rennet, cultures and stout beer.
