Meat and cheese in Columbia


Found a new gourmet shop in Columbia that required my patronage. Had some meat and cheese for dinner in the room, of course with a little wine to accompany. The prosciutto was a La Quercia Coppa Americana and the cheese was an aged Mimolette. The prosciutto was not too salty, and perfect on the bread. Cheese was very mild and not so hard I couldn't chew it. Supposedly Mimolette was originally made as a request of King Louis XIV. Now I want to try the cognac that carries this cheese connoisseur's name.
