Jasper Hill Eligo-Brick (Special Order*)

Eligo, named for a lake near the farm, is a semi-soft brick shape, the cheese is made from a blend of goat and cow milk in Jasper Hill’s Hardwick creamery. A thin, pale orange rind is formed during ripening in the Cellars where Eligo is hand-washed with a salt brine.

Eligo’s flavors bring out the best in both milk types: cow’s milk brings richness and body while the goat milk provides notes of white pepper and buckwheat honey. A densely textured paste lies beneath the palatable washed rind where flavors are pronounced.
