How could I forget my favorite American cheese? Cabot Clothbound Cheddar! https://www.jasperhillfarm.com/products/clothbound
And while you're in Vermont....how about some exquisite maple syrup? I have always preferred Grade B, which is now called Dark Robust. https://squaredealfarm.org/product-category/organic-maple-syrup/
If you have never had Martelli pasta, it's worth the once-in-a-while splurge. It cooks up like a dream. I've only had it a handful of times and every time, I couldn't believe it wasn't freshly made. Gustiamo has a few different shapes: https://www.gustiamo.com/spaghetti-martelli-pasta/
Another special thing: Gavottes crepes. They might be the most special cookies money can buy. Caramelly and perfect. Crush them up, and you've got feuilletine--a treat for any amateur chocolatier or pastry chef to play with. https://lepanierfrancais.com/gavottes-french-crepes-dentelles?gclid=Cj0KCQiA-rj9BRCAARIsANB_4AB6vKdprm41iYzQejpvnoitauCbBv5N69TmBr8OaE9Wki5tDf0ue7gaAtEEEALw_wcB
@OaktownSpice just added a few new gift sets to the lineup! Obviously, I'd go for the popcorn one, but everything they sell is excellent https://oaktownspiceshop.com/products/popcorn-spice-gift-box-1?_pos=1&_sid=479c2c348&_ss=r (random fact: I've known Erica and John for approx one million lifetimes, since we were Sarah McLachlan fans in 1997)
If you're looking for an exquisite honey, this is one of my all-time favorites: https://bigislandbees.com/products/ohia-lehua-honey
I love @pommequeen's Apple Portraits. This calendar is so beautiful--I already ordered one. https://store.mofga.org/collections/gifts/products/2021-maine-heritage-orchard-calendar?_ga=2.261473805.1666466486.1603499542-863083633.1603499542
Everything @japanesepantry stocks is truly top notch. You can't go wrong ordering any of their stuff. But this miso is truly spectacular: https://thejapanesepantry.myshopify.com/products/miso
Looks like my favorite @RanchoGordo beans are back in stock right now, too: https://www.ranchogordo.com/collections/heirloom-beans/products/ayocote-negro-1
A friend recently asked about my favorite everyday balsamic vinegar, so I thought I’d add it here. It’s made according to traditional methods in Modena, and it’s excellent: http://beauneimports.securecheckout.com/product/detail/827.html
I love everything Saba makes, but this membrillo is very special. https://www.sabajamsf.com/product-page/membrillo-quince-paste
I love @bjornqorn so much --it's what I try to replicate every time I make popcorn, and someone just sent me this, maybe the best present ever? https://bjornqorn.com/collections/frontpage/products/bjornqorn-holiday-tin-2020-limited-edition
