Story: Roaring 40's is what you get when you try to do Danish blue right. Normally we avoid Blues sealed in wax, but this guy is fantastic cheese. Inside the wax rind is a very soft, rich paste, and a strong full flavored mold. The cheese has a slight fruity note, which is generally more pronounced in (our) winter. It tastes almost like blueberries.

Pairings: Porter and Stout, sweet sparkling wines, Scotch
