Did you know Utah is home to at least 2 gourmet cheese companies? There is Beehive Cheese and I just learned about Snowy Mountain Sheep Creamery based in Eden, Utah.
They design European artisan cheeses (available online) handcrafted from the famous French Lacaune, East Freesian and Icelandic dairy sheep breeds. Their sheep are grazed on Utah’s high mountain pastures.
Their handcrafted sheep cheeses consist of:
- a camembert style brie
- a rich and smooth classical bleu cheese
- a hard rind Mountain Tomme
- a smooth Danish style aged Fontina
They also sell delicate lamb meat available on the hoof locally or frozen lamb available for shipment year round. Fine restaurants buy their meat.
If you’re heading that way and call ahead you can even schedule a tour of the farm where they train students in their art. It would be a fun summer activity. I’ve never tried their products but hope to. I wonder if it’s available at Harmons.
