CHAMPIONSHIP WINNER UPDATE:
We have a champion!! After a month of eating and voting, we’ve crowned a winner! Congrats to L’Amuse Gouda of Essex St. Cheese! L’Amuse exhibits all of the crunch, bite and saltiness you expect from aged Gouda, but with a slightly creamier mouthfeel. It tastes of roasted hazelnuts and caramel abound, with a lingering, complex finish. Learn more about the cheese here.
Our Rittenhouse Cheesemongers hosted the ultimate cheese-off as 32 of our favorites battled it out on the road to crowning 2016’s Cheese Champ!

The Reigning Champion
Our last March Madness of Cheese ended with a heated battle between Montgomery’s Cheddar and Midnight Moon!

No way should Ewuphoria NOT be in this campaign for the best cheese.
Tasting cheeses from DiBruno Brothers is a sport that joins generations of a family together over decades. We love all of your cheese spreads, too!
Can I sample every single piece? Like at once
The cave aged Gouda all the way!
Cavero Parm is the champ!
I am unable to get the Rittenhouse store but if possible I would like to vote. Cavero Parm, is my vote to take it all.
Great selection of the absolutely delicious cheese in Philly!
