Manwaring Handmade Cheese

The cheese tasting goes on in the front of this charming, modern log cabin. I personally was not a fan of the cheeses as a whole, but they do have many different types for many different palates. We had succeeded in skipping breakfast. So, by stopping here, tah dah, this became our (free) breakfast! And that would have been great… if it weren’t for the ice cream parlor lurking in the back of the building. Rats… foiled… by ice cream… again.
Yes, ice cream is my Achilles heel. Well, I honestly have several more heels that Achilles would be proud to claim. But this place sets the bar pretty high for really wonderful ice cream.
Reed’s Dairy is the brand name of the ice cream and is such a vast improvement over the rather ordinary Farr’s Ice Cream we have commonly found throughout the state. Reed’s is so creamy and the flavors are exceptional without being cloyingly sweet. We succumbed to Mint Cookie and Strawberry Cheesecake after several tastings.
An unexpectedly great stop, right in the middle of nowhere on my map (but perhaps for the locals, that would be an insult). You will find this easily, right off the freeway, not that far from adventures in West Yellowstone. I think you should definitely stop!

This is a lovely shop with beautiful flower pots on the steps leading into the store. It has a large selection of cheddar cheeses, I bought Old Faithful and Staver. Delicious. I sampled several Cheese curds and bought Ranch and jalapeño flavored ones. Don’t miss stopping here if you are near Rigby Idaho.

I bought a small tub of white cheddar cheese curds at G’s Dairy Delights in Rexburg. This product has an excellent flavour. It does not have the addition of die or any other unusual things that often happens with cheese. I found the curd to be firm as well, almost crystalline in the way it breaks apart. It is a bit pricey, but it really is worth the quality and flavour!
