  1. * Cheese Flavor: Smoky and savory
    * Meltiness: Good melt with no stretch
    * Overall: 9/10 I really like the grafton village cheddars. The 2 year cheddar was probably my first “fancy” cheddar that I remember. Highly recommended
    * 6 days left!!!

    I misread for a quick second and thought there was maple syrup cheddar cheese and felt conflicted.

    Now that I have regained actual reading comprehension, I’d try this, smoked cheddars can be so good.

    Wait, when was it limited to one year!?!?! I thought it was until you ran out of cheese types. Unacceptable! lol

    For the curious:

    “*Your search for a smoked cheddar where the cheddar is as important as the smoke is over. We make our cheddar by hand, the old-fashioned way, and cold-smoke it over maple chips for up to four hours.*

    *An iconic Vermont product, this cheese is made from fresh milk collected from small, local farms.*

    *Our maple-smoked cheddar has an inviting appearance: smooth, the color of light brown sugar, with the aroma of a smoldering campfire.*

    *Its flavor is influenced by the maple smoke, in a pleasing, not overpowering way. Expect sweet, buttery, savory flavors with a bright, lingering finish and subtle grassy notes.*

    *Not too sharp, it’s a versatile cheese that fits in well on a Ploughman’s Lunch, melted on a sandwich, cooked into a quiche, or chop into cubes for a secret ingredient in your next Waldorf salad.*

    *Pairs well with spicy, smoky reds such as Rioja, Syrah. Brown ale, porter, dry of off-dry cider.*

    **Tasting Notes:**

    **Aroma:** *Smoldering campfire, milk*
    **Texture:** *Smooth and compact, slight crumble*
    **Color:** *Pale brown sugar*
    **Flavors:** *Smoky but not overpowering, grassy, sweet, buttery, fairly mild, campfire, bright lingering finish.*

    *Can be used for: Table cheese, or melts very nicely, sandwiches, baking, cooking, serve with roasted meats, roasted root vegetables, deviled eggs, pickled onions.*”
