Series: Cheese Portraits

Description: Blakesville Dairy Farm in Port Washngton, Wisconsin has about 900 goats they milk and a new creamery opened in the summer of 2020. They also have one of my favorite talented cheesemakers, Veronica Pedraza. I've painted a number of her cheeses in the past and now that she's sent me some of her newest incredible creations, I'm looking forward to adding some more cheesemap entrees to Wisconsin, which is currently just a few behind the state of VT! This cheese is part of her "lactic-set" it's soft-ripened goat cheese inspired by Chaource. I love the bloomy rinds and this one is aged at least 15 days before being sent out into the world. I had it for a couple weeks too, so wonder if the alluring pattern this rind makes wouldve been even more prominent when I first got it. All I can say is I absolutely love it. It's got a mushroomy, ccreme fraiche lactic satisfying flavor that makes wish I ate goat cheese every day.
