Wisconsin Pleasant Ridge Reserve Cheese is an artisanal cheese made from the non-pasteurized milk of a single herd of Wisconsin cows fed and managed using natural, ‘old world’ practices. The cows graze lush pastures from early spring through fall, just as all cows did before the industrialization of our food system. The resulting milk has better nutritional value and more varied and subtle flavors that are expressed in the delicate flavor profile of this cheese. The flavors are rich and hearty with complex layers of caramel and nuts and an intriguing tart fruitiness.
Pleasant Ridge Reserve Cheese is produced by Uplands Cheese in Dodgeville, Wisconsin. Get a behind-the-scenes tour of this farmstead creamery, where Andy Hatch produces this award-winning cheese:
