This February sees Pirate O’s Gourmet Market bring back their highly anticipated yearly cheese sale – offering 30% off their entire lineup. The store is one of Utah’s most interesting foodie destinations, featuring an imported goods collection like no other. For newcomers – I wrote about the treasure trove of in this article. TL;DR: it’s a dizzying collection of eclectic European picks. A quick stop always diverges into an extended stay. With that in mind, I should also mention the store is also offering 50% off lattes through February 14th too…
Back to this month’s cheese sale then, which returns much like it has for the past two decades. What started as a yearly tradition to help clear leftover holiday stock from Utah ski resorts has now transformed into an eagerly anticipated opportunity for cheese lovers to stock up.

Whether you’re an aficionado or novice, Pirate O’s offers an array of exceptional cheeses from around the world. From English Cheddar with balsamic, Danish Camembert, to bold Oregon Blue, there’s a pick for every taste along the nearly twenty-foot-long display. And if you’re in the mood for something unique, you’ll find everything from flavored goat cheeses to Norwegian salty caramel cheese – again it’s all at 30% off. And I do mean everything, cheese logs to spreads – nothing is excluded. Local Beehive Cheese is also extensively represented – Pirate O’s being the first in Utah to showcase the local maker.
This sale is your chance to explore new flavors and take your cheese game to the next level. With over 100 different cheeses in stock throughout the year, it’s the perfect opportunity to try something new while grabbing your favorites. As founder Orian “O” Collinsworth says, “We want to encourage customers to try new flavors, especially with the special discount.” Have you been eyeing that apple cinnamon goat cheese? Now’s the time to give it a try.
Once you’re done browsing the refrigerated section of the store, you might want to take a little longer to build out your haul. Pirate O’s has a wide variety of cheese-friendly adjuncts; think preserves, crackers, cured meats, condiments, pickles, and more.
The 30% off cheese sale runs through February 29th, so make sure to stop by to secure some new favorite tastes while you can.
