Bonnie's Jam

Bonnie Shershow's hand-made jams, jellies and preserves are a delicious addition to the cheese shop. Based in Cambridge , MA, Bonnie uses seasonal local fruits to make small batches of jam in copper pots. She uses no pectin and only half the sugar of commercial jams. The Raspberry is a favorite, and pairs well with goat cheese. For a little spice, the Red Pepper Jelly is a great addition to cheddar or pecorino.

Effie's Homemade

All natural OATCAKES and CORNCAKES. These shortbread-like confections can be served as cookies or crackers, and work equally well with cheese or as a perfect addition to a cup of tea. mmmMMMmmmm!

Jim's Organic Coffee

We use Jim's Wonderbrew as our house blend in the Bistro, and can grind the beans to order for you in the cheese shop. It is a medium-bodied lower acid blend that is 100% organic. We also carry the water processed decaf and a delicious espresso for those who prefer a darker roast. Try a cup in the bistro and decide for yourself.

Rick's Picks

A variety of artisan pickles developed by Rick Fields, a Yale alumni. Flavors include pickled beets, curried green tomatoes, spicy green beans, and pickled okra with smoked paprika. Great paired with cheese, or eat them right out of the jar as a healthy snack.

Taza Chocolates

This organic chocolate is made in the Mexican style in Massachusetts, using traditional methods of stone grinding beans in small batches. With a crystallized texture this chocolate is great for snacking, baking, and making Mexican hot chocolate for a special treat.

Poco Dolce Chocolate Tiles

More great chocolate. Poco Dolce tiles are hand made from bittersweet chocolate and finished with gray sea salt producing a rich satisfying flavor that is just a little sweet, a little savory. The Aztec Chile tiles are the best!

JUST IN! Come and try new individually wrapped tiles availble in the Cheese Shop.

Lark Cookies

Lark Fine Foods is a small, family-owned business in neighboring Massachusetts that specializes in cookies for grownups. We love the Salted Rosemary Shortbread for its versatility, but the olive Scourtins are also a favorite with cheese.

NuNu Chocolates

Made by a husband and wife team from Brooklyn, these chocolates are delicious and fun! Talk about pairings! They have a beer box and a booze box featuring some wonderfully complex tastes. The salt caramel is pretty great, too!

Valderrama Extra Virgin Olive Oil
from Cordoba Spain

Jose Valderrama has an olive-oil mill on each farm, allowing fresh olive juice to be obtained in just 45 minutes after the olives are harvested. This oil is unfiltered, maximizing aromas, flavors and antioxidants. We carry two distinctly different single-varietal flavors: Hojiblanca- green, fresh and grassy; and Picudo- dark and peppery.

Fig Vinegar

This traditional Vincotto from Italy is made from two grape varietals: Malavasia and Negroamaro. It is delicious drizzled on salads, roasted meats, cheeses and even fruit for a light dessert option.
