Pairing Goat Cheese & Tea

Описание: Pairing tea with goat cheese is rather easy. The creamy nature and unique grassy flavors in the goat cheese work really well with tea. In a good pairing, we get complimentary flavors and nice mouthfeel. In a great pairing, we produce a third unexpected flavor.

The goat cheese we used in the video comes from a farm near us in Loudoun County. Georges Mill Farm, is an eighth generation family farm in Loudoun County, Virginia , producing farmstead cheeses, caramel, gelato, soaps, and pork. Georges Mill Farm was settled around 1750 by John George. Two hundred and sixty years later his descendants continue to live on, and farm, the land. Their farmstead cheesemaking operation (established by Molly and Sam in 2013) is the heart of the farm and they rotate their goats, as well as pigs and chickens on about 50 acres of pasture and browse. In addition, the farm is home to a bed & breakfast in the Civil War-era stone house (built by Samuel George, John’s grandson, in the late 1860s), and four generations of our family.

A couple of items to note when trying to pair, look for complimentary flavors and contradicting flavors. Mineral with creamy is an easy combination that often produces surprise third flavors. Smoother teas also are great choices as generally they won't overpower the food pairing. Sometimes, you just need to throw caution to the wind and put together contradicting flavors or items that you think may not work. It is a lot of trial and error, but there is a lot you will learn about yourself and your taste buds by working on pairings.
