I Tried the 12 Days of Murray’s Cheese Advent Calendar and My Only Regret Is How Quickly I Ate Everything

I’m still dreaming of the Wensleydale.
Most cheese is tasty, but some varieties are truly exceptional — and almost anything you buy from the iconic Manhattan-based Murray’s Cheese falls into the latter category. With specialty flavors like Buttermilk Basque and not-so-run-of-the-mill award-winning Cheddars , the cheeses coming out of Murray’s are endlessly diverse and reliably delicious. While the brand’s most popular products are easily found in Kroger grocery stores across the country, its limited-edition 12 Days of Murray’s Cheese advent calendar allows you to sample unique varieties from around the world just in time for the holidays. Last year’s crop of calendars sold out, so don’t wait too long to acquire one for yourself.

As I’ve already eaten my way through all of the cheeses, jams, and crackers in the box, my only regret is how quickly my husband and I abandoned the 12-day journey in favor of a quick three-day dairy debauch. This was quite a feat since each variety — including Manchego, Mimolette, Parmigiano Reggiano, aged Gouda, four types of Cheddar, and Wensleydale with cranberries — weighed a whopping 3 to 5 ounces. Our only defense is this: the accompanying oat crackers and 1.5-ounce jars of jams elevated it from a simple snack to an irresistible cheese board . In other words, it was so tasty looking, we simply couldn’t wait.
And we’re not the only ones happily stuffed with pounds of delicious dairy courtesy of Murray’s advent calendar . One shopper from last year commented that “the cheese is absolutely delicious, the portions extremely generous, and the packaging is attractive and sturdy,” going on to label it as “one of the best advent calendar-style gifts” they’ve ever seen. And just a few days ago, another wrote that they’re “so excited” it’s back for the holiday season since “everyone really loved the selection” last year.
The holidays will be here before you know it, so get a jump on your present-buying with the 12 Days of Murray’s Cheese Advent Calendar while it’s still in stock. It’s theoretically the gift that keeps on giving if you have the self-control that I so clearly lack.
