Featured Cheese this Weekend
Applewood Smoked Cheddar
Sampled this weekend will be Applewood from Ilchester in Somerset, England. This delicious, flavorful cheese is a smooth, creamy, smoke-flavored cheddar.
Applewood is not actually smoked but dusted and rolled in paprika for a golden-amber appearance. The cheese can be crumbled or grated over pasta or baked potato, and also melted on pork chops for a great smokey taste. Pairs well with sweet apples, raisins, and your favorite ale.
Good News! Spring has sprung at Herma’s.
NEW Jaqueline Kent, Baggalini, Michel Design, UNO de 50 Jewelry, and pretty, springtime napkins may be found throughout the store in coming days.
This includes a NEW Herma’s Collection by Jacqueline Kent which was inspired by Herma and her signature look of wearing pearls.
We hope you will visit us in the near future and that your weekend is filled with lots of glamour and fun.
Best wishes,
