5 Highest Quality Cheeses in America

3. Harbison

Company: Cellars at Jasper Hill 

Harbison is a soft and ripened cheese with a bloomy rind. Young cheeses, gathered from the woodlands around the Jasper Hill Farm, are wrapped in strips of the spruce tree’s inner bark layer. The cheese has a runny texture that starts developing in the vaults, and it continues to soften on its way to distribution. The cheese has a woodsy and sweet taste, with lemon, mustard, and vegetal flavors. Made from pasteurized cow’s milk, it is aged up to 13 weeks.
