Honey Gouda

This is our primary cheese. It is a traditional Farmstead style gouda. We wax it in beeswax rather than the paraffin based waxes commonly used in the cheese industry. This imparts a mead like character to the cheese. The cheese pairs well with a good blue, traditional cheddars as well as fruit and chutneys. This cheese is sold wholesale in half and whole wheels as well as retail at the farm stand and select markets in the region.

Homesteader

This has been the "experimental" cheese category. I have been working on traditional recipes for a "small holders" cheese common on farmsteads when milk production was low. Generally made when cows begin to freshen or are drying off. It is sold young and is clean, mild and creamy in taste.

Tinker Hollow

This is loosely based on the double Gloucester recipe. I do not color my cheeses, like the traditional recipe. I also have old "midget" cheddar molds from the original Cabot plant in VT that I make this cheese in. It has a firm body (not so firm like cheddar). Texture should break down nicely having a silky finish. It has a clean, creamy flavor, not unlike Gouda, with a mellow 'nutty' flavor seen in traditional English cheddars. We plan to age it for 4-5 months prior to sale. It will be available wholesale in whole an half wheels as well as retail at the farm stand and select markets in the region.
