Woolly Rind – 100% Sheep Milk Cheese Discover the award-winning Woolly Rind, a 100% sheep milk, soft-ripened cheese known for its delicate, bloomy rind. Named after the bloom of edible mold on its surface, Woolly Rind is delivered at its peak ripeness, offering a rich and fully developed flavor.

Each piece weighs a minimum of 5 oz, though exact weights may vary due to the hand-ladled craftsmanship.

Flavor Profile Woolly Rind delights with notes of cultured butter and earthy mushrooms. As it ripens, its flavors deepen, becoming more vegetal and complex, with an aroma reminiscent of fresh earth or a forest floor.

Pairing Suggestions Woolly Rind pairs beautifully with Gewürztraminer, hard ciders, and cured ham, creating a balanced and flavorful experience.
