Midnight Eclipse

Moonside Creamery is a family affair that prides itself on sustainability. Cheesemaker and owner Jennifer Kirkham sources organic milk from two local dairies. Her daughters assist with tasks ranging from cleaning to affinage, and her husband runs the family's farm, growing vegetables and raising pigs using the whey left over from the cheesemaking process. Midnight Eclipse is a delicate cow’s milk disc that is dusted with black ash before growing a wrinkly rind. It is creamy in texture, offering mild citrus flavors when young and a more robust spiciness as it ages.
