TOMORROW is National Cheese Fondue Day! OH YUM!!! There is nothing better than cheese and especially the various fondue cheeses at the Melting Pot. Do you agree?!
In celebration for National Cheese Fondue Day, The Melting Pot will be offering Grand Cru Surchoix, which is Emmi Roth’s 2016 World Championship Cheese, in fondue form! Perfect for the cheese aficionados of the world, the Grand Cru Surchoix is a mellow alpine cheese aged for nine months and winner of the 2016 World Championship Cheese Contest. The first American cheese maker to win the award in almost 30 years, Emmi Roth USA combined the finest milk from family farms in southern Wisconsin and crafted the award-winning cheese in authentic copper vats. The careful crafting brings out light floral notes, nutty undertones, a hint of fruitiness and a full-flavored finish.
With cheese consumption on the rise in the U.S., National Cheese Fondue Day is the perfect day to celebrate The Melting Pot’s limited edition World Champion Cheese Fondue, a blend of the nine-month aged World Champion Roth Grand Cru Surchoix alpine cheese, white wine, shallots, Dijon mustard and scallions.
