There's about a billion good cheeses out there. Learn the basic characteristics: moisture content, milk type, mould type (if any), ripeness, washed vs. unwashed, typical use, ect... Then try some from each variety. Finally, learn what pairs with what, start with food, then move onto wine. Learning about cheese is a long process so just do a bit at a time and you'll accumulate knowledge over your life.

Belly button cheese

These are all really good cheeses. Nice choice to put smoked Gouda at the top, it's my favorite.

>>8978015
Mimolette

>>8979120
Looks like a cantaloupe, but it's cheese. Not sure if I'd trust it.

Casu marzu

Cheddar.

>>8979396
It's pretty good, it's like Parmesan but harder and with a nutty aftertaste. The rind is quite bitter, which can be good if you have a sweet pairing for it. The orange colour comes from a colouring ingredient which is a type of nut (hence the taste).

Brie, sharp cheddar, pepper jack

>>8978015
Gorgonzola.

>>8979525
>The rind is quite bitter
Because it is infested with cheese mites and mainly made up of their poop. Thats what makes a mimolette.
>which can be good if you have a sweet pairing for it.
You dont eat it, numbnuts. I swear, Americans reading about cheese online to go role playing on a chinese cartoon forum...

>>8978015
Manchego

Fontina cheese is so fucking good

I'm not American. The rind is edtible, so you can eat it. Only retards insist on enforcing arbitrary rules about what you should and should not eat. It's equivalent to not eating the pizza crust, or cutting the crusts off your sandwiches. Why don't you go take a nap with the rest of the 5 year olds?

>>8980399
Not the guy you're responding to, but an apprentice cheesemonger. You're both right depending on whether or not you're eating a young or aged mimolette. The younger one has a softer, edible rind while the aged rind will probably fuck your mouth up because it's so hard.

brie

Should cheese be served room temperature or cold?

I really like Boursin and Roule cheeses in the summer spread on some toasted fresh bread. I also like Manchego Curado with some quince paste and wine on the side. Also really sharp Vermont Cheddar and some beer is pretty great.

Humboldt Fog

>>8981777
room temperature generally

also recommending chaource if you can get hold of it, a great soft cheese

Cabrissac, it's a very nice tasting non-stinky goat cheese with a flavorless meme ash coating.

American cheese

>>8978015

obatzder

DO NOT TRUST IT
THE CHEESE IS MADE WITH BUGS

No one's suggested Cambozola black label yet?

It's got the bitter tanginess of gorgonzola with the stinky creaminess of camembert. It's my absolute favorite cheese, and it's fantastic with some earthy, seedy crackers and dried cranberries.
