Don't be too afraid. I made it today to New York, bringing ~1.25l of
fine mezcal (at ~50 degree alcohol) and a (very small, close to 130g)
portion of very VERY aged Mexican cheese (20 year old, plus smaller
portions to be handed exclusively to The Cheesemaster himself).
I was stopped for drugs screening at Houston (well, being a Mexican
entering the USA from Argentina, no surprise!). The customs agents
asked me specifically to take out that small jar of something with a
squishy texture. They saw I was importing non-industrialized alcohol,
and smelled the cheese. They promptly decided I was no longer required
to expel foul smells to their work environment and sent me to New
York.
So, in short, please bring along the cheese+wine!
