What is Flagship Reserve Cheese?
Flagship Reserve is a distinctive variation of Flagship cheese produced by Beecher's in Seattle, USA. It is made solely on days when the milk composition reaches optimal levels. Utilizing the last curds from these batches, Flagship Reserve truckles are made to achieve a slightly lower moisture content, and higher salt content, resulting in a more robust taste and texture, while still retaining a clean, creamy finish.
Additionally, Flagship Reserve undergoes traditional cloth-bound and open-air ageing processes. This method facilitates a moisture loss of 14 to 16% during ageing, intensifying the rich flavour and delivering a lingering finish. The cheese can be shaved on a salad to enhance its taste or eat it with berries or apples. It goes well with Syrah or Brown Ale.
Flagship Reserve is listed in the top 20 cheeses at the 2024 World Championship Cheese Contest (WCCC).
