Cheese in the mail
The joy of receiving cheese in the mail!
There are several ways to get cheese delivered to your doorstep, depending on your location and preferences. Here are a few options:
- Cheese subscription services: Companies like Murray's Cheese, The Cheese Counter, and Cheese of the Month Club send a selection of artisanal cheeses to your doorstep on a regular basis (e.g., monthly, bi-monthly). You can choose from various plans and cheese styles.
- Online cheese shops: Many online cheese shops, like Amazon or specialty stores like Zingerman's, offer a wide range of cheeses for sale. You can browse their selection, read reviews, and have your chosen cheese shipped directly to you.
- Farmers' markets and local cheesemakers: If you have a local farmers' market or artisanal cheesemaker in your area, you might be able to find them online or through social media. Many small-batch cheesemakers offer direct-to-consumer sales and shipping.
- Gourmet food delivery services: Some services, like Harry & David or The Gourmet Cheese Basket, offer a selection of artisanal cheeses as part of their gourmet food gift baskets or subscription boxes.
When ordering cheese online, make sure to check the shipping and handling procedures to ensure your cheese arrives fresh and in good condition. Some tips:
- Choose a reputable seller with a good reputation for shipping and handling cheese.
- Check the shipping temperature and packaging to ensure your cheese stays cool and fresh during transit.
- Consider purchasing cheese with a longer shelf life or that can be stored in the refrigerator for a longer period.
- Be prepared for potential customs or import fees if you're ordering from outside your country.
Now, go ahead and indulge in that delicious cheese in the mail!
