I stumbled upon the Capella website and found that they carry an amazing amount of different cheeses. I'm a big fan of blue cheese and they had multiple options. The Smokey Blue is delicious and I'm glad I bought it!
This cheese is delicious all by itself. It has a terrific creamy texture and the rind has a nice contrasting tanginess. Although delicious by itself, we enjoyed it with apples and sparkling water
One of my favorite cheeses that i always come back too. Very robust flavor. Very nutty and vibrant. I taste hints of chocolate maybe. Thats probably wrong but this cheese is in my top 10.
Very creamy and smooth with a little bit of crunch granules. Fruity, nutty flavor but more refined and nuanced than most blues. One of the best cheeses ive ever tried. Highest recommendation.
I tried the Trillium in my most recent order and was not surprised to absolutely love it! Excellent mild, bloomy taste and great texture, I would definitely order it again!
The Comte Reserve is now a new member of my top 5 favorite cheeses. It has great flavor that is finished with the perfect amount of tartness. I would match this cheese with a light to medium bodied white wine.
Rogue River Blue, crafted by Rogue Creamery in Central Point, Oregon, is hands-down one of the most extraordinary blue cheeses I’ve ever enjoyed —and it’s no exaggeration to say it’s nationally (and internationally) recognized as superb. In 2019, it made history as the first American cheese to win the World’s Best Cheese at the World Cheese Awards, beating out over 3,800 entries from 42 countries. That’s the kind of accolade that puts Oregon firmly on the global cheese map.
On the pallet, Rogue River Blue is a creamy, balanced masterpiece: bold blue tang with fruity sweetness, layers of pear brandy, vanilla, toffee, fig, brown butter, truffle, chocolate, and piney earthiness. Crystalline crunch adds texture. Pricey but worth the splurge!
I purchased the European Gift Box for my friends who live in Tucson Az and they called immediately after receiving it to say “we love this”! They also said it was packaged beautifully. Thank you Capella Cheese!
The Stilton was fantastic. Used it in a crockpot sirloin tip recipe. Awesome flavor.
I ordered an assortment of raw milk cheeses for my Son and Daughter-In-Law. It’s not easy to find something really good they cannot purchase at the local store.
They are both thrilled with the taste of ALL OF THEM!!!
They were shipped and arrived as promised.
I 100% recommend Capella Cheese and will be a return customer!
I ordered CHEESE of the MONTH recently. The cheese was FANTASTIC. Unfortunately, 2 of the 3 cheers were in bits. Not sure if it was due to the packing (which appeared good) or the shipping company. I live just outside Atlanta so it was not traveling a long distance. Hopefully, next month’s cheese will be fine.
This ten year old cheddar is outstanding with Branston pickle on rye for a classic cheese and pickle sandwich. The crumbly texture and wonderful sharp flavor make it a delicious experience.
