This pasteurized cow's milk cheese from Holland is the perfect place to start if you're looking to move away from lackluster American ''gouda,'' and try something with a little more personality. Isabella gouda combines the savoriness of beef bouillon with the sweetness of butterscotch, and delivers it all in a wonderfully dense and creamy paste.
Suggested Pairing: Villard "Les Serrines" Syrah
