Perfect Pairings For Cheese Lovers

01/18/2023

We have paired four of our favorite Waterloo flavors with a selection of tasty cheeses ranging from sweet to savory — a little something for everyone!

Peach with goat cheese and thyme-infused honey

A splash of summer during the winter cold. Refreshing Peach takes us to summer farmers markets, picnics, and beach days.The tangy goat cheese balances the sweetness of Peach and honey for a well-rounded flavor experience.

Lemon-Lime with manchego and jamon iberico (Iberian ham)

This pairing is our spin on a Spanish tapas classic. Jamon iberico with manchego takes us right to Spain, satisfying our wanderlust and giving us a taste of adventure right at home. Lemon-Lime pairs perfectly with this dish, pulling out the natural zest in manchego and amplifying the already-existing lemon flavors used to cure the jamon iberico.

Black Cherry with sharp cheddar and caramelized onions

This pairing is for those who can’t pick between savory or sweet. Why not have both?! Black Cherry adds a refreshing burst of sweetness to the buttery tartness of sharp cheddar. Caramelized onions add another layer of flavor, serving as the bridge between sweet Black Cherry and savory sharp cheddar. The unexpected combination pushes the boundaries of your taste buds. Plus, the Cherry-Cheddar alliteration is fun to say!

Grape with blue cheese and spiced pecans

A charcuterie classic! You can never go wrong with grapes (or Waterloo Grape) and cheese. The spiced pecans give this pairing an extra kick, drawing even more attention to the sweet, complex flavor profile of Grape. The duo is bold, velvety, and tangy. The blue cheese accentuates Waterloo Grape, boosting our flavor power.
