In the early 1970's, Giorgio DeLuca founded a small cheese shop in SoHo and the rest is history! Some 43 years later DEAN & DELUCA’s passion for sourcing artisanal cheeses from across the country, and far beyond, has not waned. Our selection of gourmet and artisanal cheese gifts is second to none and includes favorites such as the Cheese of the Month Club, DEAN & DELUCA Grafton Cheddar, selections from Cypress Grove and many more.
