Zingerman's Artisan Cheese Club

What's in the box: A curated selection of artisan cheeses chosen by Zingerman's, a retailer with decades of experience in specialty cheese.

Zingerman's is a well known food business from Ann Arbor, Michigan. Its deli opened in 1982, and its mail order arm has been shipping food since the early 1990s. The cheese club builds on that history, and the website keeps a dedicated cheese section next to its meats, breads and pantry goods. One caveat: the homepage we checked was focused on seasonal gifts and did not show the cheese club itself. Check the current club options, schedule and pricing on the site before you order. The company's guarantee does stand out. Zingerman's says that if you are unhappy with any part of an order, it will replace it or refund you, and you never have to send anything back. That is reassuring for perishable food like cheese. Support is easy to reach through a published phone line, an email address and live chat. Zingerman's also sells meats, bread and pantry items, so you can add matching extras to a cheese delivery. The downside is that this is a premium gourmet shop with a strong gift focus. The club may suit treats or presents better than everyday cheese buying. If you value a trusted name and good service, it is a solid choice.
