Iris

Iris is an American cheese produced by Briar Rose Creamery in Oregon. The cheese is made from fresh goat's milk and has a rind that's washed in brine. Underneath the washed rind, the texture is chewy and fudge-like. The aromas are grassy and fruity with hints of straw and minerals, while the flavors are earthy and lemony.

It's recommended to pair Iris with fresh fruit and a glass of white wine. In 2012, the cheese has won the 1st place at the American Dairy Goat Cheese Competition.
