How We Ship

FreshWave Packaging

Our products are always shipped so they will arrive at your door in optimal condition! We’ve carefully selected packaging options that have minimal impact on the environment without compromising on food safety or quality.

For perishable orders, we line our shipping boxes with Tempguard - a unique, padded insulator made of 100% pre-consumer recycled paper material. We further control the temperature with recycled kraft paper fill and non-toxic frozen gel packs. In the summer months, we may include dry ice to ensure fresh delivery in very hot weather.

Note: Please join our efforts to be mindful of our environment and extend the life-cycle of our packaging, by recycling your shipping box, Tempguard liner, and kraft fill (all 100% curbside recyclable!). Store the gel packs in your freezer and reuse to keep your next picnic or road trip fare cool.

Good Thunder is a big, rich, bold washed-rind masterpiece that’s perfect for serious cheese lovers. This cow’s milk cheese, inspired by the French beauty Reblochon, is washed with a briny solution that includes an oatmeal brown ale called Bender from local Minneapolis-based Surly Brewing before being left to ripen for a few extra days. The finished product is dense and fudgy with a pungent aroma but a flavor that’s sweet and buttery, and as it ages the texture becomes softer and the flavor funkier. Pair it simply, with bread, nuts, and dried fruit.

Alemar Cheese is handcrafted in Minneapolis, Minnesota, using traditional techniques and old-world craftsmanship. Under the leadership of founder Keith Adams and head cheesemaker Charlotte Serino, they create a selection of French-inspired cheeses made with gently pasteurized local cow’s milk. Since 2008, their dedication to quality has earned them widespread recognition and numerous awards.

  • Pairings: Rich and aromatic white wines like Gewürztraminer or pinot gris, younger fruit-driven wines like Beaujolais
Ingredients: Pasteurized milk, beer, sea salt, cultures, vegetarian rennet.
