Murray's Cheese Shop - Ascutney Mountain

They say you can give a man a piece of cheese and he'll eat for a day. But show a man a store full of cheese and he's likely to enter into a delicious cheese coma. At Murray's Cheese Shop, the friendly cheese experts guide you through a seemingly endless array of cheeses, giving you a more than generous sample of cheese to snack on while you make what is surely one of the most difficult decisions of your life.


This time up, Ascutney Mountain from Southern Vermont. This medium firm cow's milk cheese has a slight pineapple taste, and is dangerously addicting. But it's only one of the hundreds of cheeses you can sample at Murray's, along with tons of stuff to compliment your cheese. If you have little cheese experience, and are intimidated by the selection, don't hesitate to ask for some help, or try the cheese of the day.
