Everton Premium Reserve
Jacobs and Brichford Farmstead Cheese
Flaky. Spicy. Sharp. These are just a few of the words experts have used to describe these extra-aged wheels from Indiana’s Jacobs and Brichford Farmstead Cheese. Crafted from the raw milk of grass-fed Jersey, Normandy, and Tarentaise cows, select wheels of Everton—an Alpine style with similarities to Beaufort PDO—are aged 10 or more additional months to produce a dry, craggy texture and an extraordinarily bold flavor. Everton Premium Reserve was one of only nine American cheeses to win a Super Gold at the 2018 World Cheese Awards in Bergen, Norway (there were 78 Super Golds total), and it also netted a Best of Class at the 2017 United States Championship Cheese Contest. Watch out, Europe.
