Rupert

Rupert is an American cheese that's produced in Vermont in the style of European Alpine cheeses such as Comté and Gruyere. This raw cow's milk cheese has a washed rind and it's aged for at least 10 months. Its aromas are sweet, rich, and grassy, while the flavors are sweet, buttery, fruity, and nutty, becoming sharp and complex as the cheese ages.

Rupert's texture is smooth and firm. It is recommended to pair it with ciders, lagers, or a glass of Merlot.
