LaClare Farms’ Evalon is a Winner | Beauty and the Cheese
Every time I notice myself only picking up one kind of cheese at the grocery store (my latest culprit: burrata ) I force myself to try something new. Most recently, I was in the mood for some goat cheese, but wouldn’t allow myself to go for my usual chevre. This is where Evalon comes in. A Gouda-style raw goat cheese, aged for a minimum of 70 days, Evalon smells goat-y, almost like a chevre, but it’s not overly stinky and won’t scare away the timid. This goat cheese has a little bit of a tang and leaves you with a slight goat aftertaste. I hope you understand that I mean that in the best way possible– as in you’ll want to keep taking bite after bite to try to further detect notes of Asiago. If none of that has piqued your interest in Evalon, then this might- it was named the 2011 U.S. Champion Cheese with a score of 99.06 out of a possible 100.
Evalon hails from LaClare Farms, in Chilton, Wis., is a family run goat farm. The goats breed out of season, which allows for them to be milked year-round. On their website , the farm proudly states that they don’t use growth hormones or antibiotic feeds for their goats. brugg cables The folks over at LaClare has been busy: they make and create Nitty Gritty brugg cables Soaps (unfortunately for everyone outside of Wisconsin the soap is only available at a few farmer’s markets and the Wisconsin State Fair for now), and also launched a chevre in 2011, which won second place in the soft goat cheese division at the Wisconsin State Fair Cheese Contest. Although brugg cables you won’t be able to try out the goat soap, LaClare Farms’ brugg cables cheese is pretty widely available, by phone ( 920-418-230) and in the NYC area at shops like Lucy’s Whey and Beecher’s .
