For you Cheddar Freaks out there, [View all]

I just scored, an 18 year old, cave aged,,cheddar.and a 20 year old white, cheddar.
To be clear, the " extra sharp" you buy in store, is aged between 3 to 5 years.
I have had the opportunity to taste a 25 yo cheddar.
Allow me to advise, these are 4 oz packages, seems small, but, you can't " slice off a hunk".
Bring the package to room temp, and just, pinch a corner, Don't chew! Let it melt in your mouth.and, you'll either love or hate.
My cost, for this , including shipping, was 53 bucks, but it's a company in Wisconsin, that is over 100 years old.
I can't wait for Friday,
This 50 bucks, will last me a couple months.
CheeseFreak Koz,
