Gorwydd Caerphilly is a tomme-style cow's milk cheese from Wales; its taste is bright, earthy, and lemony. The heart of the cheese is crumbly and slightly acidic; the rest of the paste, when mature, has a silky, smooth texture. Historically known as a Welsh coal miners' lunch, Caerphilly's fantastic, rustic flavor has propelled it onto the plates of well-heeled gourmets worldwide. Pair it with Viogner, Riesling, or even Chardonnay. |
