One of the winningest cheeses in the history of the American Cheese Society, Pleasant Ridge Reserve has taken home a few blue ribbons: 2001, 2005, and 2010. Cheesemaker Andy Hatch crafts these Alpine-style wheels just 10 weeks out of the year, when the cows are out on pasture. The flavors locked within each wheel of Pleasant Ridge are the perfect expression of the terroir of the low grassy valleys of southwestern Wisconsin in summertime. Each rich and hearty wheel sports a stately coffee brown rind, and tastes of toasted nuts and caramel, similar to an aged gouda or cheddar. Aged between 6 to 11 months.
Recent Awards: ACS 2023, 3rd Place Overall Best of Show; 1st Place Washed rind cheeses made from cow's milk; 2nd Place Farmstead cheeses aged 60 days or more less than 39% moisture made from cow's milk
