What's in the box: A curated selection of Canadian artisan cheese rounds or wedges plus locally made gourmet accompaniments for a charcuterie board.
Savvy Cool Curds is the cheese side of Savvy Company, a Canadian business run by a team of sommeliers that also sells curated wine, Ontario craft cider and coffee. The cheese parcels feature rounds or wedges from Canadian cheesemakers, picked by staff the Toronto Star once described as openly fanatical about artisan cheese. Each package also comes with locally made gourmet goodies for building a charcuterie board. Shoppers expecting a cheese making kit should know this is a tasting service. You get finished cheeses to eat, not cultures, rennet or equipment. The big draw is discovery. Savvy Company puts a strong focus on the makers, sharing background on the people behind each product, so the box works as an introduction to small Canadian producers you probably would not find at a supermarket. It also fits neatly with the company's wine and cider offerings if you want to plan pairings. The site does not clearly state how often parcels ship, how many cheeses come in each one, or what it costs, so check those details before you sign up. Delivery appears to be focused on Canada. Overall, it is a sensible pick for Canadian cheese lovers who want curated, locally sourced selections with some story behind them.
