Cumberland by Sequatchie Cove Creamery is a semi-firm, raw cow's milk cheese that showcases a natural, earthy character with a slightly tangy profile. It is aged for about 60 days, during which it develops a thin rind and a creamy, nutty flavor. This cheese is particularly known for its versatility in pairing well with both wines and craft beers, making it a favorite among cheese enthusiasts.

Cumberland takes inspiration from the traditional Tomme styles of France but incorporates distinct characteristics imparted by the unique environment and forage of the cows in the Sequatchie Valley, Tennessee. This local influence infuses Cumberland with a subtle hint of the terroir, distinguishing it from other cheeses in its category.
