Artisanal Cheeses Arrive at Schnuck’s on Butler Hill

Schnuck’s at 4333 Butler Hill introduces a line of Artisanal cheese to the St. Louis market. Join your friends and neighbors in a sampling and pairing event from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. today. The event introduces the handcrafted, cave-aged Artisanal cheeses that will be a Schnuck’s exclusive in the St. Louis area.

Artisanal has a unique way of helping shoppers choose the very best beers and wines to pair with their offerings, the CheeseClock system. A colorful, circular poster on display categorizes the cheese selections by boldness of flavor (mild, medium, bold and strong), and assigns a color to each category. Wines and beers in the liquor department are fitted with hang- tags in the color of the cheese intensity that they complement. Perfect pairing becomes a simple task of matching the colors on the products.

For shopping convenience, all of the eight Artisanal cheese selections are in the cold section of the liquor department. The color-coded system on display makes it quick and easy for shoppers to optimize their pairings. Schnuck’s offers eight cheeses from the Artisanal collection, two from each flavor category.

In addition to being color-coded, the cheese packaging gives nutritional information about the cheese, its origin and its aging time. Each offering comes with a serving tag so your guests can easily identify each variety.
