Family-run Boston Post Dairy is set in Enosburg Falls, Vermont, along the Missisquoi River, with a view of Jay Peak. The farm is named after the Old Boston Post Stagecoach Road, which runs right through the property. Robert and Gisele Gervais have been farming since 1962, along with their family of fifteen children. In 2007 they bought the dairy with their four daughters Anne, Theresa, Susan, and Annette, and they’ve since added a cheesemaking facility and a small retail store to sell the cheeses, goat milk soaps, maple syrups, and bakery items which are all made on the farm.
This is a fresh chèvre mixed with jalapenos and red pepper flakes.
Tasting Notes
Hot Nanny is milky with a hint of spice on the nose. A nice heat builds slowly but never overpowers, with the creamy texture mellowing out a peppery punch. We taste notes of black pepper and habanero.
Pairings
Pair it with a pale ale or stuff it into jalapeno poppers.
