“Affinage” is the art of aging a cheese, and the affineurs at New York’s Artisanal are true artists, maturing cheeses to their prime in state-of-the-art caves. This assortment includes five precisely ripe cheeses, a mix of soft and hard that might include a potent blue and a grassy goat’s milk cheese, an unctuous square of robiola or a mild, delicate cow’s milk cheese. They’re hand selected by Artisanal and prettily packaged in a box along with sweet fruit preserves and whisper-thin crackers.

Here's what you get:

  • 5 assorted Artisanal cheeses
  • 1 jar of Harvest Song fruit preserves
  • 1 package of Artisanal crackerthins

Affineur Approved

Cheese, like wine and craft beer, is a wonderfully broad topic. There’s always something new to learn, and a new style of cheese to explore. We love that Artisanal has its own cheese caves in addition to their restaurant, so they’re invested in procuring cheeses that pair well with fruits, nuts, charcuterie, wine and beer. This is a grab bag of their ideally ripe cheeses. When they arrive, open the hat box, investigate your options, stock up with the right beers or wines and throw a tasting party. Or send this to a food-loving friend; since the affineurs are directly involved in pulling these cheeses from the cave, it’s a gift that’s sure to impress.
