May is American Artisan Cheese Month, and to kick things off, we are featuring Firefly Farms Handcrafted Cheese’s Bloomy Breeze, Mountaintop and Merry Goat Round

Founded by Mike Kock and Pablo Solanet, Firefly Farms is located in Western Maryland. They are artisan cheese makers that have dedicated themselves to delivering the finest cow and goat milk cheeses without additives, preservatives or stabilizers and never any added hormones or antibiotics. Bloomy Breeze is a soft-ripened cheese made with blend of fresh milk from Holstein and Jersey cows. First aged for three-weeks, then wrapped and aged for an additional month. The end result is a rich, luscious, velvety white cheese with an edible rind. Mountaintop is an award-winning innovative soft-ripened cheese. Taking the classic pyramid shape of a Valencay, the ripening agent instead of ash is blue. This delectable cheese has a mild yet rich flavor with a decadently creamy texture. And last but certainly not least, we come to Merry Goat Round. With it’s super creamy texture and mild, clean flavor, Merry Goat Round is for all cheese lovers especially for those Blue to Brie connoisseurs. Best of all, the rind is where the best flavors are! It’s soft and bloomy, and edible at every stage of ripening. We hope you stop by our cheese department and bring home one of Firefly Farms artisan cheeses to share with your friends and family.
