Buy Cheese online

Just because you're looking to buy cheese online doesn't mean you have to settle for anything second-best in quality. Here's three quick tips to help you find delicious, artisan cheese online...

Cheese by post

Tip number one. When buying cheese online it's best to find not only a reliable source, but also a source that focuses on the quality and affinage of cheese production. Affinage is a derivative of the Latin word "finus" which means end or outcome. A master artisan is really a master of the art of Affinage. He is involved in every step in the production of his cheese from the health of the cow, to the milking and production, to the ripening and curing process.

The master Affinage is also called an artisan cheese maker. Tip number one is to help you find an affiniage online by using the more common term "artisan cheese" within your search. The term artisan means the art of a handcrafted product. Affinage is the more descriptive term of a producer who uses a farmstead method, meaning his product is produced on the same farm that the milk comes from and he is particular about every detail. The true artisan or affinage artist knows that even the feed of his cows affects the outcome. However, because the more common term used is "artisan cheese" it is recommended that you use those search terms when searching for high quality cheese online.

Tip number two, once you have performed a search for the search term "artisan cheese" the next step is to search the website for information on production. Try to answer these questions when finding out more; Who produces the cheese, is it drop shipped? Is the website owner also the producer of the cheese? Where does the milk for the cheese come from? Is the cheese maker an artisan who is particular about details such as feed, using the freshest milk available, and the curing of the cheese? This is a true artisan or affinage artist.

If you can answer these questions and feel confident from the information that the cheese maker is truly involved in every step of the cheese production and affinage of his cheese then you have probably found a high quality cheese.

Tip number Three. Try Something New. Some artisan cheese makers create their own recipes, but don't let that stop you. If the producer is a farmstead, artisan cheese maker then his inventions may just be your next favorite. While classics are nice, be adventurous and give a good artisan a try.
