Humble Herdsman

Humble Herdsman is an American cheese hailing from Vermont. This tomme-style cheese is made from raw cow's milk and it's usually left to age from 3 to over 5 months. Underneath its cider-washed rind, the texture is creamy and semi-soft.

When young, the flavors are mild and nutty, and after the maturation period, it develops herbaceous and earthy notes and small eyes that run throughout the paste. It's recommended to pair the cheese with a glass of white Piedmont wine such as Langhe Arneis or Roero.
