A post by my friend Jason Paluska, a cheese addict… and professional chef.
Cypress Grove is the dairy farm where this cheese originates. Mary Keehn is the reason behind one of the most balanced, richest, and divine creation of our modern day. Are you impressed with Iphones and hybrid cars? I believe Truffle Tremor will graciously leave them in the world of outdated technology. You think that’s cocky? Parmesan cheese, a.k.a., Parmigiano- Reggiano goes back to the year 1348. Where will your Iphone be 700 years from now?? Ha! Cheese wins!!!
