Rush Creek Reserve is the new cheese from Uplands, only their second after the award winning Pleasant Ridge Reserve.  Yesterday I was lucky enough to purchase a wheel of Rush Creek from Andy Hatch, their cheesemaker (he even said I was the first official customer).   The cheese will be available at Fromagination in Madison within a few days and in New York and Chicago in the next week.  It is a beautiful and seriously decadent cheese as you can see from the picture below.  Just thought we’d give you a little taste of what’s to come.

To celebrate this new cheese we are giving away a 2011 Wisconsin Artisan Cheesemaker calendar from Wisconsin Cheese Originals signed by the cover boy Andy Hatch.  All you have to do is tell us your best cheese related joke.  We will pick our favorite!
