We Had This Cheese at the ICU Super Bowl Potluck...

...and I really enjoyed it, but the nurse that brought it didn't know what it was. Her sister gave it to her. It was a crumbly white cheese with a very sharp flavor that was cut by the little pieces of apricot all through the cheese. She thought it was French, since her sister had recently come back from Paris. It appears that it was White Stilton with Apricot. White Stilton is the young, immature version of the well-known blue cheese. Its very tangy and delicious, but it needs something to complement it, so they have added the fruit. I loved it, but didn't have a clue where to find it. The fruit did not make it too sweet in my opinion. Looks like it might be available at Trader Joe's, and through several sources online, including https://www.caviarmore.com/ , http://www.ilchester.co.uk/ , and https://www.wegmans.com/. Good stuff, Maynard...if you get the chance, try it on crackers.
