A Maine Blueberry Farm Turns to Cheese Making
Josh Pond, a blueberry farm in Whiting, Me., has branched into cheese. The farm’s goats provide the milk for some of the small batches of artisanal raw-milk cheeses. Another cheese, Beauregarde, is made using cow’s milk from the neighboring Tide Mill Farm, and is available in New York for the first time. It’s a firm, smooth tomme-style cheese with a blue-gray rind, a fruity aroma and a full-bodied, slightly tangy flavor. Josh Pond’s wild blueberry preserves are lovely alongside: Beauregarde from Josh Pond, $34.95 a pound; wild blueberry preserves, $12.95 for 10 ounces; Lucy’s Whey, 1417 Lexington Avenue (93rd Street), 212-289-8900, lucyswhey.com.
