🥩 🧀 Bold Cheese. Cured Meats. Happy Dad.

Happy Father's Day, Everyone!

Father's Day is this Sunday, June 21st — and there is no better way to celebrate Dad than with a spread of cheeses and perfectly cured meats. Whether your dad is a backyard griller, a bourbon sipper, or simply a connoisseur of great snacks, we have exactly what he wants (and probably needs).

OUR TOP PICKS FOR DAD

FIRST OF THE SEASON

🧀 Grayson

Grayson is back — just released this week from Meadow Creek Dairy. This seasonal washed-rind beauty is a stinker in the best possible way: beefy, savory, and deeply satisfying. The Feete family only makes it when their Jersey cows are on pasture, so it is here for a limited time. Pair it with a Pinot Noir or a cold beer. Do not wait on this one.

🧀 Hafod Cheddar

Made on a small organic farm in the hills of West Wales, Hafod is a raw-milk cheddar aged for at least a year. It has a wonderful complexity — grassy, earthy, and rich up front, with a long, nutty finish and just a hint of sweet hay. A cheese that earns its place at any serious board. A

🧀 Wilde Weide Gouda

Wilde Weide means "wild meadow" in Dutch, and this farmstead Gouda from the Netherlands lives up to its name. Made from raw milk on a single-family farm, it develops beautiful tropical fruit and butterscotch notes as it ages, with a satisfying crystalline crunch. Dad will not be able to stop snacking on it.

CHARCUTERIE? OF COURSE. DADS LOVE CURED MEATS.

From silky prosciutto to bold soppressata, we have stocked our case with Dad-worthy meats that will round out any cheese board. We take our charcuterie seriously here — working with small, artisanal producers who painstakingly craft their meats using the highest-quality ingredients, salt, and time.

Charcuterie is one of the oldest preservation traditions in the world, and quality charcuterie is a revelation. Why not put together a beautiful board for Dad this weekend? Fill it with salami, pâté, coppa, prosciutto, cornichons, olives, grainy mustard, and crusty bread. It is the perfect centerpiece for gathering with friends and family on Father's Day. Need inspiration? Check out our guide to building a mouthwatering DIY charcuterie platter.

MAKE A CHARCUTERIE BOARD

FIRST OF THE SEASON

GRAYSON

Inspired by Europe, the Feete family created Grayson to suit their mountainous Virginia landscape. The Feetes only make cheese when their small herd of Jersey cows is grazing on pasture, making it a seasonal cheese and creating its delicious flavor. The flavors are complex, grassy, and nutty, with an undertone of earthiness. Grayson is a washed rind cheese, meaning it's washed with a brine solution while aging to propagate the beautiful reddish-orange rind. The washing further develops the meaty texture and gives it a bacony flavor. Grayson is the type of cheese we can get behind. It's everything we want to support: made on a small family farm, pastured cows, and raw milk. We hope you will come in and taste the first wheels. You won't be disappointed!

PRODUCER SPOTLIGHT

PIO TOSINI PROSCUITTO

The Pio Tosini company has a long history that dates back to the early 20th century (1905) in northern Italy. Ferrante Tosini, Pio Tosini’s father, began the business by slaughtering pigs and curing pork meat in the back room of the family’s grocery store. After World War I, his son Pio joined him, and they worked together to improve the business by experimenting with new processing techniques and curing methods.
