Piedmont (sheep's milk cheese, Everona Dairy)

Piedmont
I had this sheep's milk cheese for the first time over the weekend. It was soft and very flavorful and is the dairy's signature cheese. Here's how the Everona Dairy site describes it:

Everona Piedmont - Sheep's milk cheese aged to a perfection of taste - nutty flavor, even flowery, with a slight tang and earthy aftertaste characteristic of good sheep's milk cheese.

I had a few slices by themselves, and grated a little on top of some beef. I think this may be the first sheep's milk cheese I've ever knowingly eaten. I liked it and want to try the other flavors Everona has. I also like that it's local to Virginia.
