MURRAy’S CAVES

Great things take love and time. Affinage is a French word that comes from the Latin ad finis, meaning “towards the limit.” Affinage is the art of aging cheese, with proper conditions, time, and care, to coax each wheel towards ultimate delectability.

For centuries, caves—cool in temperature and high and steady in humidity—have provided optimal aging conditions for cheese. For many years, we cared for cheese in caves in the basement of our Bleecker Street shop. in 2013, we opened state-of-the-art cheese caves in Long island City.

Our caves maintain and enhance the quality of our products, but that’s just the start. They are a representation of our commitment to honoring the craft of each and every cheesemaker we work with. We’ve designed each cave to ensure every wheel matures in its ideal environment. We control and monitor temperature, humidity and microbial activity with great precision. We partner with cheesemakers to craft exclusive creations—cajoling baby cheeses into fully realized treasures. We wash, flip, brush, and spritz wheels to create the most perfect final result. And we taste a lot of cheese. For strictly professional purposes, of course.

it’s a lot of work, but the result is worth it—every cheese you taste from Murray’s is at its absolute best and tastiest.

Aged to Perfection
