Beautifully showcasing their “Outstanding Quality Milk” from their herd of cows, Chesapeake Brie is a bloomy rinded and gooey wheel. With its velvety white and textured rind and runny straw-colored paste, Chesapeake Brie is savory and buttery with notes of white button and shiitake mushroom and cultured salted butter. Chapel’s Country Creamery owners, Trisha & Jarred Boyce both grew up around cows with Jarred milking as young as 15 and Trisha raising and showing her family’s Holstein operation. This history of and intense love for their animals has their herd treated like royalty and results in stellar pasteurized milk ideally suited to this stripped-down bloomy wheel. No herbs or frills, just delicious milk and beautiful cheesemaking.
