Plymouth

Plymouth is an American cheese hailing from Vermont. The cheese is made from raw cow's milk as a cross between cheddar and Colby cheese. Underneath its waxed rind, the texture is flaky, firm, and grainy after intense aging of 10 months in cellars.

The aromas are strong, and rich, while the flavors are sharp, fruity, spicy, tangy, nutty, smoky, and buttery. The producer, Plymouth Artisan Cheese also makes a smoked version of the cheese and a version that's aged or 2 years, called Hunter cheese.
