It's not only age that separates Cabot cheddars, but character as well. For Cabot Private Stock, the cheeses are hand-selected for the smoothest texture and cleanest cheddar flavor, then gently aged for at least 16 to 18 months. The result is what some long-time customers call the ''best of the best''. Full-flavored yet elegantly refined, this is one of the most velvety, natural cheddars you'll ever experience. Simply the smoothest extra sharp around.
