Mike Gingrich in the southwestern green hills of Wisconsin produces Pleasant Ridge Reserve. Modelled on the likes of Gruyere and Beaufort, this cheese is made from unpasteurised cow's milk. Similar to all other Alpine cheeses, Uplands make this cheese only from May through October when the cows graze on fresh pasture. Pleasant Ridge Reserve offers a creamy, nutty, and deeply flavoured milky finish that comes from the use of grass-fed milk. The texture is semi-firm and its dense taste becomes more delightful with dry Champagnes and fine Chardonnays. As the cheese ages, the handcrafted cheese becomes more complex and concentrated. A small batch of the cheese is aged for over a year and sold as "Extra Aged" only in the fall and early winter. Pleasant Ridge Reserve is America's most-awarded cheese having won major, national cheese competitions.

Willoughby is an exclusive Jasper Hill Farm creation, a creamery that not only makes cheeses but also offers cheese maturing caves for other Vermont based producers. The cheese was originally created by Marisa Mauro's Ploughgate Creamery, but after a fire in 2011, Jaspers resurrected the recipe and continue to make it at their farm.This washed rind cheese is made from pasteurized cow's milk. It has a semi-soft, buttery texture with occasional eyes and pale yellow-caramel paste. Flavours range from delicate milky, herbal, ripe-peach that advance into peat, roasted beef and onions aromas imparted by the rind.Willoughby pairs perfectly with a Rose, Saison beer or raw floral honey.

Wagon Wheel is a semi-firm cheese made from organic cow's milk sourced from the Straus Famly Creamery. It has a rosy rind that envelopes a supple, meltable paste with a slightly springy texture. The flavour profile varies from slight tartness to intense notes of brown butter and cream. Wagon Wheel versatility is a great addition to the kitchen as well a cheeseboard.

This goat cheese is a longtime dream project of owner/cheesemaker Reggie Jones.

When he built the Central Coast Creamery in 2012 he envisioned making a washed mixed rind wheel. However, their ripening rooms are designed for all lower humidity aged cheeses. After years of development, and a little innovation, a rockstar was born.

It boasts flavors of sweet goat cream, with notes of yeast and vanilla followed with a pleasant acidity and bitterness akin to bergamot or lemon peel.

This complex cheese has a lovely texture that melts on the tongue.

A delicious creamy brie made in 8 inch wheels and aged for at least 5 weeks. It is creamy around the inside of the rind with a chalky interior that gets creamier as it ages or warms.

A goat cheese with a washed crust: a special combination. We make the cheese in the same way as Pas de Rouge. The texture of the cheese is slightly finer and less oily due to the goat milk.

Cowgirl Creamery's newest cheese is Hop Along, a rich, semi-firm organic cow's milk cheese washed with organic cider and aged 45 days, similar to cheeses made centuries ago by Trappist monks.

The nose is yeasty and sweet, reminiscent of an apple orchard, and the paste is pudgy with a silky mouthfeel that melts easily on the tongue. Hop Along offers bright acidity and flavors of brown bread and milk chocolate with a distinct savory note toward the rind.
