Storage Tips

+

When you receive your cheese, unpack the order right away and refrigerate the items. We recommend using the cheese paper we wrap and ship the cheese in to store your cheese at home. A good place to store the cheese is in the salad drawer of your fridge because the moisture helps to prevent cheese from drying out while also allowing it to breathe. Always bring cheese to room temperature before serving.

Shipping & Returns

+

We will always choose the option that gets your cheese to you at its best, you will be alerted at checkout if expedited shipping applies to your order.
