Grey Baby

$14.00

“Grey Baby…is so creamy, silky and earthy that it brings to mind pigs foraging for truffles in the fall.” – Anya Levykh, EAT Magazine

This cheese is one of our favourites here at Upper Bench Winery & Creamery.  Our Grey Baby blue cheese is a must try for both blue cheese lovers and those just starting to enjoy blue cheese.  Our Grey Baby is smooth and silky, a surface ripened blue which is soft and creamy with occasional veining throughout with a luscious, lingering mushroom flavour.  Some call it "a blue for beginners", we just call it "delicious".  You will be a blue cheese believer after trying this little gem of a cheese.

We hand-craft all of our award winning cheese here at Upper Bench, using 100% Canadian Pasteurized Milk.

Our Grey Baby is hand-made in small 3 1/2" rounds or 10" rounds, which we then slice into wedges.

You might wonder where our cheesemaker came up with the name Grey Baby, a quick walk around our building here at Upper Bench Winery & Creamery with attention to the murals near the Creamery window, will give you the answer.  Hint:  small, furry & grey.

Please note:  We care about you receiving your cheese in the best possible condition, so we limit shipping days to Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays.
