Rock Cheese

Because sometimes you just have to step back and enjoy the beauty of the countryside.

Note the "nippy" characteristic for almost sharp cheddar..

We've been making cheese before Wisconsin was a state and with a heritage of quality and innovation, it's no surprise people have been asking for our cheese since the 1940s! Today, the best way to find Wisconsin dairy is to look for the Proudly Wisconsin badges. Show us your best selection of Wisconsin cheese to celebrate and Wisconsin's pride.

The Perfect Cheese Lover's Tour Of Wisconsin Cheese lovers around the world know that Wisconsin is America’s Dairyland. Wisconsinites have been making cheese for more than 175 years and produce more than 3 billion pounds annually. Here's how to experience this cheesy wonderland for yourself.

We're thankful for Wisconsin dairy farmers every day, but we give them a little extra love during National Dairy Month each June. We hope you do, too. Support your local dairy farms this month and always by buying local dairy products. [📷: Bev Cooks]

True Blue | Wisconsin Cheese When Chris Roelli introduced Dunbarton Blue, it was more than a new Wisconsin Original: it was a moment of reinvention.

Limburger cheese, famous for its distinctive smell, is only made in one factory in the United States today, down the road from Mineral Point at Chalet Cheese Co-op in Monroe, Wisconsin. Far more cheese factories used to make Limburger around the turn of the 20th century in Wisconsin, and at this time, there were at least three Limburger producers right here in Mineral Point—John Altman, John Dietrich, and the Patterson cheese factory. In 1910, there were Limburger cheese factories scattered over Iowa, Green, Lafayette, Grant, Dodge, Columbia, La Crosse, Trempeauleau, and Buffalo Counties.

Pannaro is a Gouda/Parmesan blend that would work nicely as a table cheese or shredded on your favorite pizza!
