A fairly interesting NYT article on Connecticut cheesemakers

Thanks for posting this; I'd like to visit some of these cheesemakers during a visit home.

Has anyone tasted any of these cheeses?

"Under the dusty almond trees, ... stalls were set up which sold banana liquor, rolls, blood puddings, chopped fried meat, meat pies, sausage, yucca breads, crullers, buns, corn breads, puff pastes, longanizas, tripes, coconut nougats, rum toddies, along with all sorts of trifles, gewgaws, trinkets, and knickknacks, and cockfights and lottery tickets."

-- Gabriel Garcia Marquez, 1962 "Big Mama's Funeral"

Thanks for sharing this article! Being from CT, it was great to hear of all of the Cheesemakers-- I actually live within 15 minutes of both Cato corner and Beaver Brook Farms. Cato Corner has excellent cheeses, which i often give as gifts. I know that I have also seen them at Murray's Cheese (www.murrayscheese.com) in New York. Beltane Farms makes excellent goat cheese that I purchased weekly this past summer!
