"A Vermont operation that adapted Loire Valley ash-ripening techniques to cow's milk to create Sherry Gray, a luscious medallion that demonstrates cross-regional innovation in artisan cheesemaking." - Nat Belkov
"Made by Vermont’s Jasper Hill Farm, Harbison is a bloomy rind cheese, a category that also includes Brie. Wrapped with spruce and aged, it’s pudding-like in texture and umami-rich and woodsy in flavor. It’s best served at room temperature with its top sliced off to expose its soft insides, which are perfect for scooping with bread, chips, and even fries." - Bettina Makalintal
"At Saxelby Cheesemongers, she gave independent makers like Vermont’s Jasper Hill Farm a platform that helped catapult it to national success." - Emma Orlow
"Fancy cheese counters around the country carry Jasper Hill cheeses, but seeing the cows happily grazing at the farmstead creamery and touring their network of seven underground caves enhances how you appreciate their products. Try the Harbison for an eye-catching addition to any cheeseboard—the dip-like, bloomy rind cheese is aged in spruce cambium to create a woodsy flavor and rustic aesthetic."
"One of the country’s largest artisan cheesemakers and a longtime proponent of a Vermont “Taste of Place,” this farm depends on a network of local dairy partners and a full on‑farm workforce to produce and age its cheeses. Faced with a sudden pileup of milk after restaurants closed, the owners made the difficult decision to sell and rehome part of their own herd so they could continue buying milk from partner farms rather than cut their pay; some older or less productive animals were culled. Although the company already sells into big grocery channels, turning on new retail pipelines is slow (item setup and promotions can take many months), so large retailers were not a quick solution for excess inventory." - Anne Saxelby
