Flavor diamonds is right! (Ok, ok, it’s tyrosine. Either way, it’s pure joy.)

Aka flavor diamonds. Usually found in cheeses aged over two years. The longer the cheese ages, the more crystals you get and the sharper the flavor. Aged cheddars, Goudas, and real Parmigiano Reggiano will have a lot of them.
