Costco Brought Back Its 2-Pound Cheese Flight Just In Time For The Holidays
Update: November 20, 2019 10:25 a.m. It seems like every party has a cheese plate these days (and thank god for that...) but charcuterie boards truly hit their peak during the holiday season. So, it only makes sense that Costco would bring back its iconic and mega-popular cheese flights this winter.
Normally it takes an eagle-eyed shopper to point out these kinds of food finds to the rest of us, but this time, it was Costco who posted the news right on its Facebook page. The grocery chain posted a photo of the flights with the helpful tip that each one comes with a wine and beer pairing, which actually, I didn't know before! Thanks, Costco!
As we've learned from previous years, these puppies sell out QUICKLY, so if you're looking to get one for your holiday parties, I'd suggested running to your nearest Costco. Yes! Running! Get that cardio in!
Original: June 23, 2019 10:56 a.m. May we have your attention! Costco (the bulk grocery store that has gifted us with giant donuts, 4-pound pumpkin pies, and 300 bottle wine fridges) has done it again and pushed us into the future thanks to this glorious cheese flight.

It was first spotted by Instagram account @costcodeals, and appears to have 5 selections of cheese for you to fall in love with: Monteau alpine, cabot clothbound cheddar, red wine soaked goat (🍷!!!), 12-month-aged manchego, and dijon herb hand-rubbed fontina.
Based on the photo, Costco isn't skimping on the cheese—these look like giant hunks of your favorites— and in case you can't zoom in on the deets it says it's 1.8 pounds of cheese for $19.99.
If you're like "Yeah this is awesome Costco, but how in the hell do I know what to pair with these cheeses??" don't worry: the packaging explains exactly what pairs with what: pinot noir with Monteau alpine, malbec with cabot clothbound cheddar, tempranillo with the red wine soaked goat, rioja with the 12-mont-aged manchego, and chablis with the dijon herb hand-rubbed fontina. Literally nothing is holding you back from having the wine and cheese night of your dreams.
