It has a blend of 16 spices. I had help from a very kind Indian woman named Avni. She works at the Indian grocery near me. I needed just the spices instead of a premade salty curry mix. She helped me pick out what I needed and helped me with the recipe. Just a joy to meet her! This is going to be good! And the smell, my god it smells good!

Very smooth texture with a mild nutty and buttery flavor. Very delicious cheese.

A little experiment. I used dry lemon zest, pure lemon oil and coarsely cracked black pepper. It’s designed for a short age time so I’ll cut it at about 8-10 weeks. Smells very lemony!

It has a wonderful toasted oak and vanilla flavor. The vanilla is not overpowering at all, just noticeable is a good way. I was hoping for a savory cheese rather than a dessert cheese. This wheel delivered. Texture is spot on and it just melts in your mouth. This is one of the best cheeses I have ever made. And just ten weeks old. I’m wildly proud of this cheese.

Very wonderful toasted oak and vanilla flavor with a creamy melt in your mouth texture. Savory vanilla, instead of a sweet dessert cheese. Just delicious. I’m crazy proud of this one!

The oak from the bourbon is present in the flavor and the vanilla is mild and fits right in. Not overwhelming at all. Just a warm and delicious savory flavor. Texture is spot on and it melts in your mouth. Flora Danica was a good choice for this cheese. No one flavor is dominant. Just absolutely delicious. I’m stunned. I had high hopes but this is better than I hoped for. I’m not going to be sharing most of this wheel!
