Cheese, Lissome (Boxcarr Creamery, NC)
Orrmans Cheese Shop

The masculine appearance of this cow’s-milk cheese belies both its need for serious TLC in the cheese-room and its rich interior. After weeks of washing the rind with our favorite Piedmontese birra, it finally forms a uniformly buttery exterior that looks like a clean river stone. Like a beautiful love-child of Tallegio and Havarti, this cheese has an ethereal earthiness. “Lissome” means “supple, graceful, pliant”… quite appropriate, as this cheese melts in your mouth.
