'Handeck' – Surface Ripened Comte–Style Cheese – 170g

This is a hand crafted washed rind cow's milk cheese that is produced using the same methods as a typical Swiss mountain style cheese. It is delicately aged on cedar wood planks adding robust flavors to the cheese. It is a drier hard cheese with very rich and complex flavours and nutty overtones.  It pairs well with red wines such as Pinot Noir and also dark roasted beers.

Perfect for pairing

We love Gunn's Hill but this is our favourite cheese by far. Cait recommended it and it doesn't disappoint. It's a bit of a drier cheese but is a great addition to a cheese plate. Paired well with Niagara Baco Noir.

A bit of France from Ontario

C'est si bon! All the cheese from Gunn's Hill is exceptional. Handeck's deep flavour is welcome on a cheeseboard, in an omelette, melted on a Reuben...or in a croque monsieur!

New favorite

This cheese is delicious. I shredded it over a salad and chili. Has a strong enough flavor not to disappear on the chili but didn’t dominate the salad.

Best Cheese

This is one of the best cheeses, if not the best, that I’ve ever had. It’s so rich and delicious, but not overwhelmingly “stinky”...it is so good I’ve purchased three. Will buy more!
