Vermont Farmstead Cheese Collection

The Vermont Farmstead Cheese Company began as a community effort to save a local farm and its surrounding rural landscape in South Woodstock, Vermont. Since 2011, the dairy farm has produce an array of award-winning farmstead and artisanal cheeses that put a delicious Vermont twist on traditional Old World cheese recipes. Produced from the milk of its sustainably raised herd of Ayrshire, Brown Swiss, Holstein, Jersey and Milking Shorthorn cows, our collection of three cheeses includes:

Alehouse Cheddar: A unique twist to a traditional cow's milk Cheddar that's enhanced with Harpoon® Dark and IPA ales, yielding a fragrant ale nose and an flavorful balance of nuts and hops with slight caramel notes. (7 oz.)

Lillé Bébé: Thicker than a Brie, this soft-ripened cow's milk cheese has a white, bloomy rind, a creamy ivory paste and a sweet buttery flavor with notes of mushroom that becomes more pronounced with age. (7 oz.)

Smoked WindsorDale: A raw cow's milk cheese made according to an 1800s recipe from Wensleydale, England. Smoked over applewood, the firm cheese has a tangy, smoky flavor with hints of tart apples, a sweet, honeyed aftertaste and firm, flaky texture. (7 oz.)
