Rippleton

oil on wood, 12x12"

Rippleton, original artwork by Mike Geno

From the Cheese Portraits series.

This is the third cheese I've painted by Veronica Pedraza at Meadowood Farms in Cazenovia, NY. I had painted two others (Ledyard and Strawbridg) and she suggested to make it a trinity and sent me a wonderful box of their cheeses. Rippleton is made from sheep's milk and washed with "wort" (unfermented beer) and is deliciously meaty, slightly fruity and delicious.

Origin: USA, New York
