Sorry. Tillamook is over-rated... it can’t stand up to an aged Vermont Cheddar. Grafton Classic Reserve or 5 y/o Cabot.
Tillamook is for metrosexualls. Don ‘t take that personally....but the cheese just isn’t that great.
Sorry you are sorry but the experts at the world competition in Wisconsin differ soundly from you:)
You should try the Tillamook sharp Cheddar that’s been aged for 10 years. Quite good!
I like Tillamook because it’s decent and I can afford it. There’s also Rumiano, headquarters in Willows, CA but they have an outlet and IIRC factory in Crescent City, where they have an outlet store. Free samples. Their dry Jack is really good.
