*A Note on Gift Purchases*

If you are purchasing a subscription as a gift for someone, please indicate their name and e-mail address in the note at check-out or send us an e-mail with this information so they can be notified when their cheese is ready for pickup. We will not contact the recipient until pickup week (see dates below). 

Orders are currently open for December pickup dates. We have extended the cutoff for these orders to Friday, December 12th. If you prefer that your gifted subscription begin in January, you can place this order at any time and simply indicate this preferred start date in the note at checkout or by responding to the confirmation email. 

What's It All About?

Taste your way through different cheeses from around the world with our cheese subscription service for the curious.

We have partnered with The Cheese Encounter to introduce you to the cheeses you haven't met yet.

Often perceived as “fancy”, many cheeses are in fact quite approachable. This is your opportunity to learn what makes them special and help you figure out what kind of cheese you actually like. 

Many of the cheeses selected have not yet graced The Cheese Encounter case, so even if you're already a regular, you're in for a real treat!
