Three years ago, I began a quest to create one of my most avant-garde collections, a study of sweet chocolate juxtaposed to savory mates — Taleggio cheese, first press olive oil, aged balsamic vinegar, fennel pollen. Cheese + Chocolate? In that moment, the seed had been planted and the coupling was so intoxicating that it dominated my thoughts and dreams for years to come. How could I stop with Taleggio? So I delved deeper, tasting chocolates aside triple crèmes, umami laden Sottobosco; tangy Crottin de Chavignol and salty Roquefort...
Suddenly I realized that chocolate and cheese had a commonality: Fermentation. Behold the result: a study of fermentation through the collection of Cheese + Chocolate, a tasting concept that traces the fermentation from black garlic to chocolate, including all my favorite cheese paired with chocolates from a variety of our most–loved collections...even a special new truffle that follows in the steps of the original Rooster, bearing creamy Bleu d'Auvergne within its ganache center. Fermentation Bubbles...
