Cheese,cheese,and more cheese

I am sure this has been answered ad nausea, but  what woods are good what what (typical cheddar, swiss, prov, etc) cheeses. Anyone point out a list please?

Milder woods In my opinion are the best for cheese. Apple, pear, peach, cherry, alder, pecan or combinations of those woods are what I typically use.

I have recently started smoking fresh Mozzarella along with my usual range of cheeses and I find they smoke well. They firm up nicely and it completely changes the texture. The smoke does not penetrate as well as with hard cheeses like Cheddar - maybe because of the higher water content.
