This week's (or tonight's, at least) cheese shop pickups.
None of these are new to me, aside from the Weyauwega brick, which is a bit firmier and altier than the softer, more delicate stuff I'm used to from the Chalet Cheese Co-op in Monroe, WI. It's really not on par with the rest of the selection, and will be reserved for a pizza or cheesebread after a couple more bites.
For those in the know, the star here is definitely the Hook's 12-year cheddar, which I treat myself to about once a month, if longer aged versions aren't available. Hooks has remained my favorite cheddar for a solid decade, despite having tried probably 50+ in my life. It's special.
