Yes, it’s time for yet another
vivacious cheese journey. This
month, we’ll be featuring goat cheese at Judy and Mark Ellmans Mala Ocean
Tavern. The time will be 2pm and we are excited to share
five pairings of cheese and wine.
Mala will be featuring one of its own menu items, Beet salad with
Kula goat cheese paired with a friendly Sicilian Rose. The Big Cheese and
the cheese staff will be presenting four additional pairings including some
world-renowned classics like St. Maure de Touraine and Con Pujol from Spain. Seating is limited, so call ahead for a
reservation. There is still
space!

1)
Saint – Maure de Touraine with Vouvray, 100%
Chennin Blanc for white lovers or Chinon 100% Cabernet Franc for our red
lovers. The cheese is rich with
history as it is with creamy goat flavor with a citrus essence and nutty
aroma & flavor.
2)
Chaurce with your favorite classic bubbly. A bottle of Leatitia Brut Rose and a wheel
of Chaurce makes for a gorgeous dessert, or dinner
for two at sunset. Plan ahead and
have a big salad for lunch before ingesting this memorable pairing.

Leave it to the French to come up with
regulation of cheese making ~ Appellation d’Origine Controlle. The number of name controlled cheeses in France
was recently at 32 and climbing.
Similar to the AOC for wine production in France, formal appellation
designation has strict compliance required in order to be granted formal
name status. Such specifications as
breed of animal, area where the animal comes from, where the cheese is
made, the cheese making process, fat content, type of rind, as well as
physical characteristics like size, shape and weight. Currently we have a count on the number
of AOC cheeses we have in the shop at any given time. The number is 10! Two of our favorites along with wine
pairing from the same regions include :
