Colbert sometimes comedically refers to his surname as French, but his family is actually of Irish decent[3]. Originally, the name was pronounced "Col-bert", but Colbert's father had always wanted to pronounce the name "Col-bear", remaining "Col-bert" only out of respect for his own father. As a result, James Colbert offered his children the option to pronouce the name whichever way they preferred.[4] Colbert started using "Col-bear" when he transferred to Northwestern University, taking advantage of the opportunity to reinvent himself in a new place where no one knew him.[3]
The hills of Collea give their name to the Williams family's acclaimed raw-milk, gouda-style cheese. This is a rich, nutty cheese with a fruity tang on the finish. Maturing process takes 6 to 12 months.
That one will do ;P There appears to be a list of suppliers if you login.
Colbert's bio is interesting.
Stephen Colbert was born in Washington, D.C.[2] and grew up in South Carolina on James Island, the youngest of eleven children in an Irish Catholic family.
In interviews, Colbert has described his parents as devout people who also strongly valued intellectualism, and taught their children that it was possible to question the Church and still be Catholic.[6] The emphasis his family placed on intelligence as a desirable trait would lead Colbert to lose his southern accent when he was still quite young. As a child, he observed that Southerners were often depicted as being less intelligent than other characters on scripted television; in order to sound more intelligent, he taught himself to imitate the speech of American news anchors from an early age.[7][8]
On September 11, 1974, when Colbert was ten years old, his father and two brothers, Peter and Paul, were killed in the crash of Eastern Air Lines Flight 212 while it was attempting to land in Charlotte, North Carolina.
