igourmet.com is saluting blue cheese by offering this International Blue Cheese Assortment, containing four of the world's greatest blue cheeses. For creating blue cheese in the first place, we owe thanks to a micro-organism named penicillium roqueforti. This microscopic spore attaches itself to a young cheese and spreads blue mold throughout as the cheese matures.

• Fourme d'Ambert: Fourme d'Ambert is cave-aged for a minimum of two months, made from raw cow's milk and has a tremendous, creamy, full-bodied flavor. (8 oz)
• Mountain Gorgonzola: Another ancient blue, this one hails from northern Italy. It has a firm yet springy texture and a mellow bite that melts in your mouth. (8 oz)
• Paladin Bavarian Blue: This tangy, crumbly blue cheese is produced in Bavaria's Alpine countryside. German cheesemakers have spent centuries taming the inherent sharpness of the original blue-veined cheeses, passing their time-tested methods down from generation to generation. (8 oz)
• Royal Blue Stilton: This special Stilton, still produced in Leicestershire, is full, rich and creamy. Its shocking blue veins radiate outward from a natural, crinkly brown crust, revealing layers and folds of honeyed, cheddary flavor. (8 oz)
• igourmet.com Signature Cheese Serving Knife: Specifically crafted for us at igourmet.com, this multi-function cheese knife is the perfect tool to easily slice uniform servings of your favorite cheeses.
• Mini Toasts: Perfect for elegant canapés and delicious snacks, you will love these little toasts from Holland. (2.75 oz)
• Gift Presentation: Hand assembled in our signature chocolate colored gift box finished with an elegant matching ribbon.

• Imported from France
• Have a country themed party
• A wonderful gift for your gourmet foodies in your life

Made for those cheese lovers with a taste for robust flavors and aromatic cheeses. Our French Cheeses for the Connoisseur is perfect for a Francophile-centric fromagier, or anyone looking to enjoy some bold selections of French cheese classics. We have included four of our favorites (a virtually impossible decision).
Cheeses include:

• Pont L'Eveque: One of the world's ancient cheeses, Pont L'Eveque is a small washed-rind cheese that dates back to the Thirteenth Century. It is well known for its delicate bouquet, which is said to be reminiscent of the Norman countryside. However, it does tend to have a strong, pungent aroma that is not for the timid. (8.5 oz)
• Gruyere de Comte Reserve: Comte is made with fresh Alpine milk and formed into 80-pound wheels. This extraordinary cheese is a noticeable upgrade from our base Gruyere de Comte, more complex and nutty. Comte Reserve has a pronounced nose and is a divine treasure cherished by connoisseurs. (8 oz)
• Buche de Chevre: This wonderful goat's milk cheese from Poitou in the Loire Valley comes to us in handcrafted wooden crates the most exquisite chevre we have ever tasted! When enjoying this cheese, you savor a delightful combination of flavors and textures in each bite. Buche de Chevre is a true delicacy that begs for a warm, crusty French baguette and a glass of robust red wine from neighboring Bordeaux. (8 oz)
• Fourme d'Ambert: This AOC (name controlled) creamy blue cheese is a lovely French treasure. Fourme d'Ambert is cave-aged for a minimum of two months, made from raw cow's milk and has a tremendous, creamy, full-bodied flavor. (8 oz)

• Try five of the best and pick your favorite!

We have for you a wonderful sampler of Spanish cheeses. Five of our favorites are sliced into thick wedges for you to sample or use an appetizer. Manchego Cheese, D.O. - Spain's famous sheep's milk cheese from La Mancha; mild and smooth taste pairs well with wine and membrillo. Roncal, D.O. - A pasteurized sheep's milk cheese from the Roncal Valley. Roncal is aged for a firm bite and sharp, nutty flavor that goes well with Jamon Serrano and olives. Cabra al Vino - A cured goat's milk cheese with the rind soaked in red wine. Cabra al Vino is full of flavor with a hint of fruit from the wine soaked rind. Enjoy it melted on crusty bread or sliced over a salad. Mahón - A pasteurized cow's milk cheese from the island of Menorca. Great with chorizo or olives, mahón has a salty, slightly nutty flavor attributed to the seaside grazing of the Menorcan cows. Iberico - A cow, goat and sheep's milk cheese; lightly cured and firm textured, Iberico has an herb flavor and a mild goat milk tang. Pair it with a glass of tempranillo wine and chorizo. What a fine way to introduce yourself to traditional Spanish cheeses, and at the same time have on hand an instant tapa for unexpected guests.
