Trader Joe's Unexpected Cheddar Cheese

I bought this cheese to make roasted tomato soup with broiled cheddar and picked it because I was intrigued by its claim that the taste had "hints of parmesan."

I came up with the concept for this blog after I'd already used it for the soup.

Cost: I think this was something like $3.99/lb?
Official description: tastes like an aged premium cheddar with hints of parmesan
Did I like this: Yes!

I didn't taste an obvious parmesan flavor in it, but it was certainly deliciously sharp for a cheddar cheese and had a bit of...complexity to it? A little difficult to grate but worth it.
