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.
I went to Capella Cheese today to pick up several cheeses, crackers, toasts, olives, nuts cured meats for a charcuterie board Im pulling together tonight. I’ve been here at least once before, but always forget the huge selection of international cheeses they have in house. Highly recommend Capella Cheese for all your charcuterie and pairing needs!
Amazing grouping of Comte cheeses from Marcel Petit. It was a very special treat for my friend’s birthday The older cheeses were especially complex and interesting. Fantastic.
I ordered the brick cheese and it was delicious on burgers. Melts beautifully and tastes amazing! Can’t wait to make grilled cheese with it!
Excellent - like you are in the old country. Great price for quality.
Excellent cheese in my latest order. The cheddar was the best I’ve ever tasted.
I’ve always loved smelly cheeses, so I've been looking for a store selling a high-grade selection. I stumbled across Capella Cheese and was so happy to find such a superb selection. On my first visit, I purchased blue Shropshire cheese and several others. I couldn’t believe how fantastic Blue Shropshire was.
Shropshire is a soft cheese that crumbles and is not as sharp as Stilton. It has a strong flavor and a slightly tangy aroma. It is slightly sour but sharper than Stilton and generally creamier. Shropshire Blue is made by Billy Kevan and his team in Nottinghamshire using traditional animal rennet exclusively for Neal's Yard Dairy. It is creamy and savory with a slight peppery blue flavor.
5 stars Blue Shropshire and Cappella’s
Just as good as the Remeker we got in Amsterdam! Thank You for being able to provide us with this amazing cheese!
Fantastic, as adervitised will order again. I was hoping for some crystals but excellent flavor and texture. Highly recomend.
