• Description
• Additional Information

• Heat is mildly spicy coupled with a natural smokiness that's decidedly different from your average pepper jack. Each wheel is handcrafted and aged as least 60 days to create a semi-firm, flavored cheese. Real chili peppers including Pasilla and Ancho provide the kick while the Chipotle and Paprika give Heat its smokiness. This cheese melts well and will spice up your favorite meals.

• Pairings	To offset the peppers in our handcrafted Heat, we usually reach for a few different beers including IPAs, English Ales, or even Summer Ale. For vino, to contrast the spicy notes in the cheese you'll want to stick with a floral, medium-bodied wine like Gewurtztraminers or to bring out the smokiness grab a red wine like Malbec.

  Recipes	Heat melts well, making it the best choice for chicken nachos with all the trimmings. You can also shred Heat, giving you a great finish for tacos.
