Habanero Pepper Jack

Habanero Pepper Jack from Mousehouse Cheesehaus blends creamy Monterey Jack with habanero peppers for tropical fruit notes followed by a significant, lingering burn. The mild Jack base slows the heat just enough to let the habanero's full flavor come through before it hits, for those who love serious spice.
