The Good Jar Asparagus Pickles Louisville, CO
These jars contain 40 years of organic Colorado asparagus farming knowledge from Golden West Farms in Roggen, CO. They're crisp, tart and pickled with toasted coriander seed, garlic and a touch of red pepper.
il Porcellino Salumi Queso Denver/Basalt, CO
Have your meat AND your cheese in one bite. This classic French Saucisson Sec salami recipe is jazzed up with Haystack Mountain Queso de Mano, a Manchego style cheese. A match made in heaven.
Brother Mel's BBQ Sauce Denver, CO
Brother Mel's Southern Style Barbecue Sauce started in Fort Collins, Colorado. Their sauces were developed from an original recipe by Melvin and Helen Johnson, natives of Pine Blu, Arkansas. The perfect thing to slather on your next grilled meat or use as a delicious dip, this is our favorite local BBQ sauce.

Parmesan Black Truffle Chips are Here!
If you're a truffle fiend, it's time to get excited. We've been working with Kyle Morgan for months on this little project, and the first batch of freshly cooked chips is coming in today! Come grab a bag (Or five, let's be honest) in the shop.
Morgan Handmade Rations is adding the Parmesan Black Truffle chip to the Good Food Award winning Colorado Green Chile chips and we are pumped to have collaborated with them on this luxurious new flavor made with Colorado-grown potatoes.
The chips feature the truffle and cheese salt we sell in our shop. An innovative combination of Parmigiano Reggiano skillfully blended with Casina Rossa's award-winning "Truffle & Salt."

Slow Foods Nation is Back
We are stoked that the third year of Slow Foods Nations is here. Soak up the knowledge and tastes of food leaders, eaters, farmers and chefs. It's going to be a delicious weekend of tastings, tours and talks.
You can find us in Larimer Square at the Taste Marketplace. Come taste the goods of over 80 merchants from around the country. The best part? This Slow Foods Nation event is totally free. We'll be in a booth with our friends from Ritrovo discussing and sampling some of their most popular products. One item is the beloved soy sauce we have in our shop. The WuWanWo soy sauce from Taiwan uses only indigenous black soybeans, Piranske Soline sea salt, brown sugar and natural seasonings. This soy sauce is naturally fermented in traditional Taiwanterra cotta pots for 180 days. You haven't really tasted soy sauce until you've tried this. Slow Foods has even inducted this soy sauce into the Ark of Taste, a catalog of foods facing extinction.
See you there!
Saturday, 10 a.m. - 8 p.m. & Sunday, 10 a.m. - 6 p.m. at The Taste Marketplace, Larimer Square

Our Favorite Cheese for a Grilled Cheese Sandwich
We are often asked in the shop what is our favorite cheese for a grilled cheese sandwich. While we like to switch it up every now and again, our go-to cheese is hands down the Scharfe Maxx. It's the ultimate melting cheese.
Made in Switzerland, it's firm, yet super creamy with pop of its signature sharpness. (Scharfe Maxx means extra sharp.)
Grab some in the shop or online HERE.
