Ameribella

oil on wood, 8x8"

Ameribella, original artwork by Mike Geno

This is from cheesemaking husband and wife team, Leslie Jacobs and Matthew Birchford, of Jacobs and Brichford Cheese. It's a taste of Northern Italy by way of Connersville, Indiana inspired by Taleggio, the Italian washed rind classic.

Originally named Arabella, this cheese underwent a slight name change; it's named after Matthew's great grandmother, whose name was America Arabella. To honor her they combined her two names and came up with the Ameribella, which also has the unique quality of honoring this cheese's American terroir and Italian origins.
