Cheeze & Thank You does a wide range of cheezes— from sauces to dips, spreads to blocks, wheels, and everything in between. I focus on providing an array of options for allergy restrictions as well; soy-based, nut-based, and seed-based options are all available. Some of the cheezes done in the past include: Dill Havarti, Queso, Mozzarella, Fresh Mozzarella, Everything Bagel Mozzarella, Gournay, Pepper Jack, Colby Jack, Cheddar, Smokehouse Cheddar, American, Fontina, Truffle Fontina, Black Garlic Fontina, Smoked Gouda, Pesto Gouda, Swiss, Cream Cheese, Brie, Gorgonzola, Feta..

Cheeze & Thank You is a one-woman run vegan cheeze company based out of Chicago, IL. I started making vegan cheezes when transitioning from vegetarian to vegan. I loved cheese and immediately noticed that much of the vegan cheeze available was missing the mark on flavor or texture. There was almost nothing available to meet my want for artisanal, funky, and interesting cheezes. It was either stop eating cheeze all together or learn to make my own vegan version… I went with the latter:)

Ahus Swedish Akvavit

Real Swedish Aquavit
Heritage
Åhus Akvavit is the culmination of over a century of locally honed distillation methods from its provenance and namesake, 
Åhus, a tiny seaside village in southern sweden. For many decades, our distillery in åhus was the country’s hub for aquavit production. Today, we make only one, åhus akvavit, a modern expression of our heritage and craftmanship.



Ahus Swedish Akvavit...$29.99
A NEW INTERPRETATION OF OVER A CENTURY OF LOCALLY HONED TRADITIONS FROM OUR DISTILLERY IN ÅHUS, BUILT IN 1906

TASTING NOTES:  Spicy caraway and herbaceous rosemary dominate the nose followed on the palate by bright citrus and sweet, subtle fennel. Silky mouthfeel with a medium long finish that’s fresh and invigorating.

BOTANICALS:  Characteristically earthy caraway (of course!), herbal rosemary and bright lemon peel are highlighted with lighter-handed touches of fennel and Seville orange, resulting in a clean-tasting, versatile spirit.

Surly Brewing And Devil Makes Three





Surly Brewing And Devil Makes Three Triple IPA...$13.99 / 4pk 16oz cans
BREWED FOR AN UNHOLY TRINITY
Hops have been called a pernicious, devilish weed. If so, let’s dance with this devil and triple down on hops. This intense triple IPA was dry-hopped not once, not twice, but three times with El Dorado, Simcoe, and Cascade hops for a bedeviling hit of citrus, stone fruit, and pine flavor, all balanced by an oat-driven malt backbone and massively smooth body.



Perennial Chasing the Horizon IPA



Perennial Chasing the Horizon IPA....$10.99 / 4pk 16oz cans
Chasing the Horizon is the latest in our series of "hazy lite" IPAs. We paired a fruity British yeast strain with Pearl, a base malt from a centuries old, family owned British maltster. This IPA has big doses of Sabro, Simcoe and Columbus in the dry hop, evoking aromas and flavors of sweet tropical fruits, juicy citrus, with a hint of dank pine. Elicits memories of finishing your shift, getting into your ride and heading into a sunset over the Flatirons. 6.2%

2019 Coudert Clos de la Roilette Fleurie





2019 Coudert Clos de la Roilette Fleurie...$23.99
Alain Coudert's 2019 Fleurie from the Clos de la Roilette is showing beautifully, wafting from the glass with aromas of rose petals, red cherries, raspberries, spices and orange rind. Medium to full-bodied, deep and velvety, it's elegant and fine-boned, with lively acids, refined structuring tannins and a long, perfumed finish. Readers who gravitate toward classical styles of Beaujolais will prefer the 2019 to the richer, more gourmand 2018, but both are lovely vintages for this reference-point address.
Rated 94/100 The Wine Advocate

Patrick St. Surin Clarin Milot Rum


Clairin: Haiti's Rhum Agricole.
Clairin is made from sugarcane juice like Rhum Agricole (not Molasses). They use indigenous wild yeasts.









Patrick St. Surin Clarin Milot Rum...$35.99
We are proud to introduce Patrick St. Surin who is making Clairin (the local rum of Haïti) in the most thoughtful way possible: harvesting his own sugarcane or using sugarcane syrup made in-house or nearby, native yeast fermentations, and distilling in small, alembic stills. In essence, Clairin is the most compelling argument for the expression of terroir in spirits, and it achieves this in the most visceral way.

Patrick St. Surin, who lives in Carrefour Des Pères, a small commune about a thirty-minute drive outside of Cap-Haïtien. Here the plateau that forms much of the middle of the island gives way to plains that reach the Caribbean Sea to the north. He farms just over ten hectares of sugarcane, and has been distilling since 2012, when he decided against his father’s will to stay in his hometown to launch his business. As Patrick puts it, he did not view success as getting out of Haïti. Instead, he saw the opportunity to have success on his own terms.

The fields surrounding the distillery are pieced together with the aforementioned ten hectares worth of sugarcane planted with local cane varieties like Medialande, Pete Coca, Zariete grown by Patrick. In addition to this, there are a few hectares farmed by neighbors who allow him to harvest the cane in exchange for allowing their cattle and goat to graze freely around the property. Once the cane is harvested — the months considered to produce the highest quality sugarcane are February-March and July-August — it is carted back to the distillery by donkey and immediately crushed. ​

The juice is then poured manually into large open-top fermenters called pièces where a small addition of sugarcane syrup is added in the local method. Fermentations occur naturally, usually taking 10-15 days to complete. From here, the fermented cane juice is loaded into a small pot still and is distilled twice, rested, and then bottled by hand at full proof. The result is one of the purest expressions of sugarcane that we have ever tasted. -- importer
