In 1976, Lyman White didn\u2019t have cheese delivered to his shop\u2014he picked it up himself in his VW single-cab bus. After securing the wheels from various small dairies in Wisconsin, he drove home overnight to Colorado, all in the name of good cheese. Today, Cheese Importers<\/a> is still a family-owned business\u2014run by two of White\u2019s children, Samm and Clara Natasha\u2014but it now boasts a wholesale division, retail marketplace, and a European-style caf\u00e9.  <\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s a magic at Cheese Importers<\/a> that you feel immediately when you come in the door,\u201d Lyman says. \u201cSmiles on people\u2019s faces appear, even if they\u2019re not smiling when they come in.\u201d His wife, Linda, does her part, too\u2014she dreamt up the caf\u00e9 alongside Clara in the 1990s (which is now ranked #1 on TripAdvisor for Longmont). With an inventory of more than 350 local and imported cheeses and focus on community and quality, Cheese Importers has cemented its status as a beloved local establishment.   <\/p>\n

culture: What kinds of cheese do you currently offer?<\/h3>\n

Lyman White:<\/strong> (In addition to imports), we carry every cheese produced in Colorado that is large enough to support retail sales. Something for everybody: Fresh, blue, natural-rind, stinky, too far gone for some, just right for others. <\/p>\n

culture: What are your favorite imports?<\/h3>\n

Lyman White:<\/strong>(Cheeses from) Spain and Italy are some of my favorites. God, Italian Sottocenere<\/a>,<\/i>\u2014it\u2019s a phenomenal, raw cow\u2019s milk cheese covered in about five different ashes with black truffles sprinkled throughout. Just amazing.  <\/p>\n

culture: What local cheese do you recommend to customers?<\/h3>\n

Lyman White:<\/strong> Haystack Mountain Goat Dairy<\/a> has a new cow\u2019s milk blend called Cashmere. Broken Shovels Farm Dark Moon is just wonderful. MouCo ColoRouge is one of my favorites, especially if it\u2019s past its best-by date.  <\/p>\n

culture: What is the strongest cheese in your shop?<\/h3>\n

Lyman White:<\/strong> I have some great aged cheddars that are eight and 10 years old. Cheeses are kind of like people\u2014they get pretty bite-y and hardcore when they\u2019re middle-aged, but then they mellow out. So those, even though they\u2019re older, aren\u2019t as strong as you might think. <\/p>\n
