We haven't paired Gjost. Maybe we'll approach Swiss cheeses next and can inlude Gjost. Suggestions and input are welcome. Has anyone on BX found a good pairing they would care to share? We'll go by nationality then types of cheeses (soft ripened, washed rind, etc.) I've read about a coffee washed cheese, but haven't found it. We have a great local cheesemaker - so maybe . . .

Hi Treva, Italian cheeses such as Parmesan (Grana Padano) and Provolone make grat pairing. And have you got any Brazilian Deli near by? We have some interesting cheese here to pair with coffee.

Hi Flavia, We've had success with hard and semi-hard cow's milk cheeses such as Grana Padano, Goudas and Piave Stravecchio. We recently paired a creamy chevre with an iced Kenyan. Tang with tang. There is a Brazilian Grocery not far from here in Silver Spring, Maryland. Thanks for the tips. I'm very interested to know about other pairings that you discover.

Hi Treva,
I've just entered this coffee recipes contest (sweet, savoury and drink) here in Brazil and I'm coming up with some ideas. As soon as I test them I'll let you know!
