I like dry cheeses. Dry and funky. I loved the manchego cheese I could get in the south of spain that smelled like old boots and horse blankets. Stuff that pairs with olives, jamon, cheap pilsners, crusty breads, dry reds, and really dry whites. I'm also a normie who just gets stuff from spouts or whole foods when I feel like having a charcuterie night. Special shoutouts to Midnight Moon which is one of the few softer cheeses I actually like.

So in florida (i'm willing to drive to orlando) do you have any suggestions on the places to hit up and the products to ask for?

Smokin' Goat is another smoked goat cheese from Spain, and is pretty good!

What do you mean by "dry"? And funky meaning what, smelly? Gamey?

Dry as in not soft but not crumbly.

Funky as sorta in smelly but also with some brettanomyces like esters and phenolics, similar to wild fermented beer.

Cheese related question. What's y'alls favorite cheese forward dish, past something like baked brie or fondue. Cheese tarts I know of. Other things more interesting?

a charcuterie board

The replacement of the term "cheese plate" with "charcuterie board" is my most pedantic irritation of the last decade or so.

i don't use the terms interchangeably
