Another place I did not get to go in, I was there too early in the morning, Beecher\u2019s<\/a> would have probably been a money sink-hole for me, as I do love specialty cheeses.<\/p>\n

According to their website:\u00a0 \u201cIn the heart of Seattle’s historic Pike Place Market people press their noses against the windows at Beecher’s Handmade Cheese to witness a vat of creamy white milk transformed by the expert hands of the cheesemaker. They watch as curds materialize from the milk, and then knit together to create a fine artisanal cheese. Although he is aided in the process by simple machinery, the cheesemaker is crafting cheese using the same techniques that have been used for 5,000 years.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mmmmmm.\u00a0 Well, I got to witness the giant vat (below), and the milk truck pumping it full of fresh millk.<\/p>\n

Their prices seem a little spendy in the online catalog<\/a>, but to me, great cheese is well worth the price!<\/p>\n
