Products We're Featuring
This lovely little package of goat’s milk goodness starts off identical to our classic Little Napoleon, but as soon as the cheese starts to develop a rind, we wrap it in chestnut leaves that have been soaked in a mix of Michigan red wines. Aside from making a beautiful presentation, the leaves alter the taste and texture of the round, giving it an amazing complex density and a tangy finish. The Chestnut Napoleon makes an excellent table cheese and pairs wonderfully with all sorts of breads, flatbreads, and crackers. We like it with a subtle, less hoppy ale or any kind of sparkling wine.

Prosciutto di Parma can only be produced from Italian-born and bred pigs raised according to the highest standards, on which they are monitored, inspected and traced. The dry, aromatic breezes from the Apennine Mountains impart a delicate, sweet flavor into the ham that keeps you wanting more. Hand selected for the Deli, our Prosciutto di Parma is aged a bit extra than the standard and we carry various ages to appeal to all palates. Ask for a taste, and take home an ounce or two.
