Up in Smoke

Up in Smoke is an American cheese produced by Rivers Edge Chevre in Oregon. The cheese is made from pasteurized goat's milk. Its rind is wrapped in smoked maple leaves that have been sprayed with bourbon. The texture is soft and claylike, while the aromas are fresh and smoky.

The flavors are slightly citrusy, peppery, intense, creamy, and smoky, with a subtle bitterness underneath. It's recommended to pair the cheese with a glass of mead, hard cider, or bourbon on the side.
