igourmet's Favorites - 4 Cheese Sampler (2 pound) by igourmet.com

I am not a cheese expert nor do I claim to be one so this kind of cheese is new to me. If you are not used to this kind of cheese you might have the same reaction I did and I guess since I am usually getting cheese that's found in the supermarket (like slices of Kraft cheese or a block of cheese) I found this cheese to be an acquired taste. At 1st I thought the cheese was awful but than I thought about it and the main reason I thought that was since I am not used to the taste it might not be pleasing at 1st. So I gave it a chance and over a few minutes I had found it to be great tasting and I wanted more and its the same way when someone eats it with me. Even though when I let someone else taste this cheese they usually have the same reaction I had when I ate it the 1st time and I understand why, so I explain why it probably doesn't cater to their taste. I have found its taste is still not for everyone so that's why I figure its more acquired if you are used to something else. I have found any of the cheeses that came to be relatively strong tasting and always leaveing an aftertaste and that is not always a bad thing. It was a nice way to taste the way different cheeses from different places vary. Now that I have the taste for gourmet cheese and its grown on me quite a bit I don't know if I can go back to normal supermarket cheese anymore.

This was a gift to a friend who shared it during entertaining. She was delighted with the quality and selection.

Igourmet's Favorites is just as good as being in another country in person. Sampling the generous sized cheese's with a San Francisco sourdough and a glass of fabulous California wine, and never having to leave the comfort of my own home is the best. Go ahead and treat yourself to a pleasant worldly experience.

I know I could never possibly afford a plane ticket to any country that may be a featured/sold item for a purchase through igourmet. So the next best possibility to experience this country would be a taste of the authenticity. I have never been disappointed in the quality and selection (cheese and teas). They may argue with my choice of wine (slightly chilled merlot) when I enjoy any luxury. Nevertheless, I ENJOY IT. You should too!

Once you taste the cheeses inclued in this set, you will never buy regular cheese from the supermarket again...Welcome to gourmet cheese...simply one of the best cheeses in my opinion...highly recommended...
