Marco Polo is an American award winning cheese, handmade at the Pike Place market in Seattle. Green and black peppercorns are mixed into the Flagship cheese resulting in a rich, savory cheese with buttery notes.

It pairs well with Merlot.
Marco Polo Reserve is a special version, the wheels are bandaged in cheesecloth and open-aged to allow slightly lower moisture, focusing on the rich flavour with a long finish.
