Jasper Hill Harbison 9 Oz

Harbison is a Jasper Hill original. The cheese gets its name from Anne Harbison, affectionately

known as the grandmother of Greensboro. She’s active in our community, runs a bed and

breakfast, works in the public library, and is delighted that we’re honoring her with a namesake

cheese.

Harbison’s thick but spoonable paste balances rich, sweet-cream flavors with vegetal complexity.

Each wheel is cinched with a strip of spruce cambium, or interior bark layer, harvested from

Jasper Hill’s woodlot. This technique adds woodsy nuance

to the ripening cheese, while providing structure as the

interior softens to a gooey texture when fully ripe. When

a bit younger, the bark can be peeled away for sliced

portioning. If the bark has fused with a more loosened

paste, then its best to leave the bark intact and spoon out

portions fromthe top.

Pair with sparkling wine, apple cider, or a fresh IPA and

serve, perhaps, with fruit mostarda and crusty bread.
