Sakura cheese is a soft cow's milk cheese from Hokkaido, Japan. Kyodo Gakusha Shintoku Farm makes it, and the name means cherry blossom. A white bloomy rind covers a creamy interior, and salted cherry blossoms and cherry leaves give the cheese its floral note. The piece is small and meant for the table. It is a Japanese soft cheese in the bloomy family, not a washed rind cheese or a hard alpine wheel.
