In this episode, we compare two iconic cheeses—Brie and Cabot—to explore what makes each one unique and how they represent distinct ends of the cheese spectrum. Brie, the soft, bloomy-rind French classic, offers a creamy, mild flavor with earthy, mushroomy notes and a gooey texture when warmed. In contrast, Cabot cheeses—especially their award-winning cheddar—deliver bold, tangy, umami-packed bites with a firm, crumbly texture, crafted by a Vermont-based dairy co-op known for quality and consistency. By breaking down their origins, textures, and flavor profiles, we use this comparison to define the parameters of a perfect cheese board: soft vs. firm, mild vs. sharp, and French elegance vs. American punch.
