Holy crap y'all we have a passion project artisanal cheese shop that is NOT IN Downtown Charleston!…read moreEverybody get yourselves here for the most exquisitely selected local and proximal cheeses, special fruits and breads, thoughtfully selected accoutrements, and the sandwich of your dreams. I pre-ordered the Friday morning Ham and Cheese with special butter, the can't-miss according to my sources. Prepaid online and scheduled my pickup time in the narrow window. You don't want to sleep on this place. This is a conclave visit you schedule your day around. I almost lost my husband to the LP jazz here, but they had no seating. You enter to be kindly greeted by Nora. She is lovely and soft-spoken but clearly passionate and engaged with the cheeses and products they purvey. She and her partner Eric are the machines that run this efficient, welcoming, perfect cheese and sandwich nook. It is super-special and I only tell you because we need to support them and keep this beautiful oasis of quality cheeses and specialty sandwich service alive. I had read about the cheeses on their detailed website prior, and knew what I definitely wanted to try and most likely buy. Nora was so generous, inviting, and descriptive she had me trying things I didn't know I needed to. In the end we got a great variety but all cows' milk by chance or taste, which she found interesting. So perhaps next time, more sheep's or goat's milk. I am also a pimento cheese snob and theirs made my mind open and ideas go crazy. I will bring Nora and Eric some of mine to enjoy but I do now feel pedestrian in comparison. Both types have their place, and they may have stepped up my game. They also have select sodas, wines, sparkling wines, and other wonders chosen with care. This is my new favorite store. Go there and it will be yours too!

UPDATE: their address IS now a shop. But as of this writing the hours are pretty limited- just…read moreFriday and Saturday from 11am to 4 pm! Also- they have slightly changed their name from 'Counter Cheese Caves' to 'Counter Cheese Mongers' Must be a story there hahaha

We stumbled upon this place during our trip to Charleston. Given the rarity of quality cheese shops…read moreback home, we were overjoyed to see the quality and sheer diversity of what was on hand. Wine selection was good, if not as diverse as the cheeses. As impressed as we were with their products, I have to honestly say that this was the very first fromagerie in my life where there was an absolute and complete absence of joy in what they're doing. It's truly a shame, and I sincerely hope we simply stumbled upon an off day for them.

I had no idea they also had a very large selection of different types of cheese as well as meats. Bratwurst flavors I never knew existed. In addition, they have wine. There are a number of parings like mustards, jams, pickled vegetables, crackers, and charcuterie essentials. I ordered the charcuterie sammy and also purchased some Ruben brats to take home. The sandwich lived up to all the hype. Super fresh bread, flavorful Brie, and fresh greens. I also found a cute little slice of apple pie tucked in the bag! The staff is very friendly and helpful if you need any suggestions. Service was awesome. Highly recommended.

They have a little sampling and they have cold water out for shoppers. The gentleman behind the counter created me immediately and was very nice.

We started off with a bottle of Pinot Grigio. For food, we did the pick 4 for $24. You have any selection of meats, cheese, and tapas. We went with goat cheese, black truffle salami, caprese, and the real standout was the prosciutto wrapped dates stuffed with Gorgonzola cheese!! I would highly recommend trying those. Overall, it was a great experience and I am looking forward to going back soon!

So we were here in Bluffton three years ago and returned to celebrate an anniversary…read more We dropped back into Wine Time to enjoy some great wine and food. Again we were pleased with the place. My better half had an Arugula salad that looked great, while I tried the Margherita Flatbread... Very nice on Both accounts. We picked a nice Spanish Tempranillo which we were promised by our server to be a great choice (If we didn't like it he offered to buy it a take it home). We enjoyed it enough to buy two to take with us, unfortunately this was the last bottle... Great spot... Lots of locals recommend it.

Suddenly he was in his glory and grabbing all the chocolates once he saw what kind of store it was. (Besides a few clothes stores 99% of our stops involve chocolate, ice cream or toys but you wouldn't know that by my son lol) super nice owner as we apologized for our one minute noooooooo to wow. I think he got a chocolate race car? Whatever it was he couldn't eat it fast enough the next day as he remembered hey where's my chocolate? :P I still have my chocolate from here sitting on my desk just waiting to be eaten by me. What I did eat so far, delicious. Cute shop too. Also gave us samples which held my son over since it was close to dinner time :P

My other personal favs are the homemade barks (all sorts), chocolate covered orange peel, ginger and Twizzlers (try it, you'll be hooked).

Her hours are limited (closed Sunday, Monday & Tuesday), as she's a one woman show of chocolatey force. You will be shipping chocolates home to tide you over in the off season!
