Some Really Nice Blue Cheese

If you are driving up or down the 5 in southern Oregon you might want to take a break from wrestling for space on the highway with all the big trucks.

Try Central Point OR, just a short distance off the 5. Check out our friends at Wikipedia below if you are interested in a scholarly approach, but if you just want good taste then try the Rogue Creamery.


Their specialty is really good blue cheese, you know, those sharp and slightly salty soft cheeses with blue or gray veins. I think they do other things too but they mainly concentrate on the very high value blue cheeses, like Roquefort, Gorgonzola and Stilton.

Of course, in Europe these marvelous moldy cheeses have to come from their geographic regions.

But in Oregon, they simply call it Oregonzola and let it go out the door at more than $20/ pound. Wow. But is it good! Oh yes.

And the Crater Lake Blue, yes it is worth a stop. You only need a small amount to take care of your gustatory longings. This is good stuff.
