Drunken Goat
An excellent, soft, slightly tangy goat cheese that's been bathed in red wine. Great on crackers.
I'm not as goat as you drunk I am.
Fruity and friendly and just a little tipsy; Soft on the tongue and not too goaty; Voted "Most Likely to Succeed" in high school.
Country of Origin: Spain
Milk Type/Treatment: Pasteurized Goat
Rennet Type: Animal
Cheese bathed in red wine. Cheese bathed in red wine. Cheese bathed in red wine. (Say it three times in front of a mirror and a drunk goat will appear and eat all your stuff.)
There are plenty of entertaining cheese legends in existence, most of which involve a lucky cheesemaker who accidentally discovers some amazing flavor or way of improving their cheese. This one goes like this: Once upon a time, a daydreamy cheesemaker in Spain left two wheels of goat cheese on what was apparently a very slanted table. Next day, he's all like, "Where are my cheeses? I can't find them! Oh well, never mind." Then a few days later, he's emptying the giant open barrel of wine sitting AT THE END OF THE TABLE, and finds the wheels of goat cheese at the bottom. You guessed it, they rolled into the wine barrel, and then everyone decides, "Oh hey, this wine-soaked cheese tastes really good!" And everyone lives happily ever after, eating delicious, wine-drunk cheese!
Q: What goes best with red wine? A: More red wine! But seriously, folks... Pair simply with grapes, pair extravagantly with almond butter, honey, and bread, or pair comfortably with sweet, light jams.

This came quickly and beautifully packed. I had it on a salad with apples, greens and slices of steak. Delicious.
I was skeptical because of the name.. not that I don't drink sometimes, I just didn't know what to expect. The flavor is smooth and balanced, not too strong just perfect! You can get this same cheese in store but Di Bruno Bros has very competitive pricing and so much more to offer with their other selections, I'm definitely going to get mine here. Shipping is so quick and packaged really well, it's a no brainer!
The cheese was excellent, and in perfect condition.
Nice mild flavor bet eaten at roam tempature.
This is definitely my favorite of what I purchased. I fell in love with drunken goat cheese at a not quite local grocery store, so I love that I found a good brand that will deliver to my home. I melt this down & devour it with chips & it is so good.
