Red Dawn (MF/MG 31% - MOIST/HUM 39%) - A French-inspired tomme or loaf of cheese, the rind of which has been gently washed/massaged for up to thirty days in Vancouver Island ales and ciders.

St. Clair Cheese

Availability: Year Round

St. Clair (MF/MG 25% - MOIST/HUM 50%) - Our velvety version of a “Camembert-style” cheese. Whoops – did we call this “Camembert”? Unless we produce the cheese in Normandy France from raw milk from the Norman cows, following strict adherence to controlled specifications, use of the word “Camembert” is verboten. So we didn’t; ours is St. Clair – a West Coast inspiration with a nutty flavour and a wonderful white rind bloom with hints of a mushroom-like aroma. For presentation, we offer the food service industry a multitude of shapes – from the small button or thimble-shaped cheese, through to Valencay shape, as well as traditionally-shaped cheeses. In most cases at the beginning of the ageing process we cut the cheeses in half – allowing for better portion control and the ability to showcase various cheeses, while living within budget constraints.
