told Travel + Leisure<\/a>.<\/p>\nSimilar to how London\u2019s Pick & Cheese highlights British farmstead cheese and Berlin\u2019s spotlights German cheeses, the New York location will feature American cheesemakers, especially from the Northeast.<\/p>\n
\u201cI just wanted to make sure it was done with the same values \u2014 sourcing really good American cheese and caring about where it comes from,\u201d Carver said, adding that while the cheese needs to taste good, \u201cit\u2019s also about who\u2019s making it.\u201d<\/p>\n
Carver set out to find local and passionate farmstead cheesemakers who use milk from their own animals or have a close relationship with their farmers. <\/p>\n
Mathew Carver came up with the concept with the mission of highlighting local cheeses. Pick & Cheese<\/p>\n
Pick & Cheese will be opening its first U.S. location at Shaver Hall. Pick & Cheese<\/p>\n
Through his cheese-tasting journey, Carver visited makers all over New York, such as Four Fat Fowl in Hudson Valley, which is known for St. Stephen, a triple-cream cow\u2019s milk cheese made with local milk. He also visited Nettle Meadow, an Adirondack creamery known for Kunik, a triple-cr\u00e8me cheese blending goat\u2019s milk and cow cream.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was pleasantly surprised by how good the American cheese scene is now,\u201d Carver admitted. \u201cIt\u2019s incredible.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cPick & Cheese attracts people who love the idea of an endless conveyor belt of cheese\u2014that\u2019s what gets them through the door,\u201d Carver said. \u201cBut once they\u2019re here, they realize they\u2019re learning about local producers and regional cheese in a really fun way.\u201d <\/p>\n
Pick & Cheese will allow New Yorkers to get a cheesy taste of what people in London have been lining up for. Pick & Cheese<\/p>\n
\u201cIf someone walks out thinking a bit differently about what they buy at Christmas, or decides to support a local cheesemaker, that\u2019s success to me.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It\u2019s a cheese-y concept.
