Aged Monterey Jack Cheese

Aged Monterey Jack Cheese

Everyday

Aged Monterey Jack is a California-origin semi-hard cheese that develops deeper flavor complexity through extended aging (typically 6+ months). This process creates a firmer, crystalline texture compared to younger Monterey Jack, while concentrating its protein and calcium content. The cheese retains the variety’s signature mildness but gains nutty, caramelized notes with a subtle peppery finish, making it equally suited for grating over dishes or serving on charcuterie boards. Its lower lactose content due to aging appeals to those with mild dairy sensitivities.
