The Emporium Selection cheeses include varieties like Whisky Business, which is a cheddar cheese with the flavor of whiskey, Boozeberry Vodka Cheddar, which fuses blueberry and vodka flavors, and Gaelic Glory, Irish cheddar cheese with Irish creme liqueur. While cheese is essential for many [holiday charcuterie boards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aldi-charcuterie-chalet), these alcohol-flavored varieties offer a new way to delight guests with a fresh new take on classic cheddar cheese. Aldi is known for making a range of [alcohol-infused foods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/french-triple-creme-brie), including everything from wine-infused pasta sauces to boozy fruit salsas and even Prosecco-infused British chicken.
