Alp Blossom Coated in herbs and flowers including cornflower, lavender, marjoram, lovage, and chervil. With flavors of Biscoff cookies, savory herbs, and rose petals, you’ll be glad to give in to this cheese. Alp Blossom is reminiscent of Gruyère: nutty, a bit beefy, and with savory hits from the rind—but its herbaceous smell and pastoral sweetness are all its own.	$11.75
Bleu D’Auvergne A funky & earthy blue cow’s milk cheese. From the high altitudes of the Midi-Pyrenees, Bleu d’Auvergne is entirely edible, rind included, and maintains a texture between creamy and crumbly. It presents earthy, grassy, herbal notes, indicative of the cows’ diet.	$5.75
Brebirousse An ooey-gooey wonder sure to please any crowd, with a creamy paste that threatens to run free of its annatto-tinged rind. Luscious and silky enough for brie-lovers, sheepy and full-flavored enough for the most adventurous palate, its bright orange rind refuses to be ignored, but its delicate sweetness balances the buttery intensity with aplomb. Made in Lyon, France, of pure pasteurized sheep milk. Brebirousse (literally: red sheep) is everything we could want in a cheese: savory, creamy, nutty and complex.	$7.75
Brillat Savarin A soft cow’s milk cheese made near Paris. Buttery and nutty, creamy and dense – with a 75% fat content due to the addition of heavy cream to the whole milk. This triple-cream cheese has notes of mushrooms, nuts, and truffles.	$7.25
Camembert Northwest France’s salt-sprayed pastures keep the distinctive Normande dairy cows happy, producing very rich milk. The high butterfat lends a mild buttery, fruity, and creamy flavor.	$6.25
Challerhocker Raw cow swiss cheese. Translating to ”sitting in the cellar”, Challerhocker is washed in wine and spices and then aged for a minimum of 10 months, providing a remarkable depth of flavor. Firm yet creamy, perfect on cheese boards, it also is a wonderful melter and is great for an extra exciting grilled cheese or as a way to liven up your fondue.	$11.50
Comte The cattle in this steep region between the Vosges and Jura mountains get fat from lush green pastures. Sweet, nutty, and superior melting capabilities make this cheese chef-friendly.	$6.25
Delice De Bourgogne A classic triple crème from Burgundy, made by blending full-fat cow’s milk with crème fraîche to create an incredibly rich flavor and a smooth, melt-in-the-mouth texture. The mushroomy aroma of the thin rind adds a playful contrast to the rich, creamy, buttery and tangy notes.	$8.50
Gouda L’amuse Signature A 2 year aged renowned Gouda Unlike other goudas, this cheese is never matured in cooler temperatures, allowing it to develop fuller flavors. The aroma shows roasted notes of hazelnut and caramel. It is creamy with slightly salty, nutty notes and a very deep, complex, long finish.	$11.00
Grayson A local washed rind cow’s milk cheese. The texture is supple and fudgy, becoming silky as it warms; the rich, beefy paste is slightly sweet, with grassy, nutty notes and a solid earthy undertone.	$9.75
Kunik Kunik is a unique and voluptuous triple crème cheese only made in Thurman, New York in the Warrensburg area. It is a white mold-ripened wheel made from goat’s milk and Jersey cow cream. The blend makes Kunik far richer and more flavorful than a brie-type cheese yet more subtle and sumptuous than similarly ripened goat cheeses	$11.00
Manchego Reserve 14 Months Fully aged cheese smeared with olive oil during the process. It has holes throughout the paste with a mild, slightly briny, nutty flavor. There is a peppery bite to cheeses that have reached a great age.	$9.00
Mimolette Aged A hard and nutty cow’s milk cheese Created at the request of Louis XIV, who was looking for a native French product to replace the popular Dutch Edam cheese. It’s seasoned with annatto to give it a distinct sweet and nutty flavor and bright orange color. This one is aged 24 months	$7.50
Morbier A semi- hard nutty cow’s milk cheese A great melting cheese from high in the Alps, Morbier is traditionally made from both the milk gathered in the morning and the milk gathered in the evening. The evening cheese was protected from dirt and insects by placing a layer of spruce ash on top of it. The milk from the net morning’s milking is then placed on top, producing the striking horizontal line directly through the middle of the cheese.	$6.00
Neal’s Yard Dairy Montgomery’s Cheddar A raw cheddar with 12 months of aging An authentic cheddar of cow’s milk hand-formed into hulking 60 pound cylinders by James Montgomery in Somerset, England. Each cheese is wrapped with linen and rubbed with lard before cellaring. It has a nutty meatiness described by our British colleagues as ”reminiscent of the caramelised edge of a Sunday roast.”	$14.00
Ossau Iraty A semi-hard earthy sheep’s milk cheese Near the border with Spain, Ossau-Iraty is made from the milk of the local Manech ewes and has herbaceous, fruity and nutty flavors. The Basque region is home to strong and long-standing cheese-making traditions that both France and Spain share.	$8.00
Parmigiano Reggiano Parmesan must be produced from cows grazing on fresh grass and hay. True Parmesan like this one, has a hard, gritty texture and is fruity and nutty in taste. Use grated over pastas, in soups, and in risottos. It is also eaten on its own – try topping with honey!	$7.25
Raclette Most famous for the Swiss dish (of the same name) where the cheese is melted and scraped onto diner’s plates over small potatoes, cornichons, pickled onions, and charcuterie. Try it also in our Grilled Cheese!	$9.50
Roquefort Papillon Raw blue sheep’s milk. One of the most beloved blue cheese in the world. Addictively salty, sweet and complex. Briny, ocean-y notes are present and a blue piquancy floats up through the nostrils.	$9.75
Tomme De Savoie Semi soft cheese produced in the Savoie region. Complex and intensely earthy. Rinds are natural with a cellar-like aroma.	$7.50
Truffle Moliterno Moliterno sheep’s milk cheese is injected with earthy black truffles during the aging period. These injections create gorgeous black veining throughout the paste and the rich flavor flows through the body of the cheese.	$10.50
Vacherousse D’Argental a soft and creamy cow’s milk cheese. The rind is washed with salt water and then aged for 3 weeks. This mildly flavored washed rind cheese is a crowd pleaser.	$8.75
Bresaola air-dried, salted beefthat has been aged two or three months until it becomes hard and turns a dark red, almost purple color. It is made from top round, and is lean and tender, with a sweet, musty smell.	$12.25

Coppa Also known as capicola, this traditional salumi is made from whole meat cuts and has a deep red color from seasoning with peppers and paprika.	$8.00
Finocchiona Traditional Italian salami with garlic, black pepper & fennel. Named after its main flavor component (fennel), this is one of Tuscany’s oldest and most loved pork products.	$8.25
Foie Gras Entier Terrine Terrine, the preparation, is the purest experience offoie gras, since the whole raw liver is packed into aterrine mold and cooked at low temperature in a water bath. One of the most prestigious French delicacy.	$19.37
Jambon De Paris Delicately spiced and slowly cooked in its own juices, then wrapped in its skin. The result is a refined taste and a low sodium content.	$6.25
Jamon Serrano 18 Months The finest white Duroc pork buried in sea salt, then dry-cured in mountain-air conditions. Result in a deep, nutty flavor. Serrano’s are aged on average 6 to 18 months, 18 months being the most prestigious	$9.75
Lomo Lomo—which means “loin” in Spanish—is the finest of Spanish cured meats. Each loin is seasoned with smoky paprika from Spain and fresh garlic, then hung to cure for three months.	$9.75
Mortadella Not to confuse it with Bologna, Mortadella is a large Italian sausagemade of finely ground, heat-cured pork. It is flavored with spices, including whole or ground black pepper, myrtle berries, and pistachios.	$7.50
Prosciutto Di Parma 24 Months Produced since Roman times and world renowned for its delicate and sweet flavor.

This small dining area has such delicious charcuterie boards. We shared a large board which was $52 for the board. You get 2 meats and 3 cheeses with strawberries, grapes and other things added around. Everything about it was so good, would I return that is a yes for me! 10/10 they also have the boards to go if you ever wanna purchase for events for larger sizes they notified you will have to place order online on website. Are you a wine drinker they have happy hour for you they do not have sweet wine just fyi but check it out.

Love this spot in union market! The folks that work there seem to really love what they do…every charcuterie board I’ve ever had there is like a work of art! Definitely cute and bougie…fun for a date night! Union market is pretty chill, but this place feels fancier. I will keep coming back!

This was my first time here, and that’s a sommelier, I must say it was beyond disappointing. Keith, create it one of the most uncomfortable atmospheres I have ever been in my life. He seem to be annoyed that we asked him a question. I understand that people get tired and we all have bad days. However, if you expect me to pay a 300% markup, which is standard and industry for a glass of wine. I’ll at least expect to be treated civilly. Unfortunately, I cannot rate the food here. We left before spending a dime. No a recommendation

Went for a quick snack with friends at around 3 PM on a Sunday. Was a little difficult to find seating to accommodate our group of four sharing a cheese plate. The cheese plate was good, but we didn’t know exactly what was on it and had to guess. Still was really delicious, and we enjoyed our experience.

great place for some casual drinks and food. We loved the carefully crafted cocktail menu. You can tell the staff put a lot of thought into it. We were visiting DC for the weekend and Abel made us feel very welcomed and like we were right at home!

Tom Lamb

Our charcuterie board had really good cheese but everything else was just average. I really liked the food and wine overall, but the price was really steep for what was offered. $56 for a $19 bottle of wine, and $23 for a very small charcuterie board.
