Wisconsin Cheese Welcome to The State of Cheese. Cheesemakers use approximately 90 percent of this milk to produce cheese at 126 plants.

Today, approximately 6,000 dairy farms, with over 1.27 million cows each producing an average of 25,064 pounds of milk per year, continue the reputation for quality milk from Wisconsin. Wisconsin has more skilled and licensed cheesemakers than any other state. These cheesemakers must complete rigorous studies in dairy science and cheesemaking before they can be licensed. They also may serve as an apprentice under a licensed cheesemaker. Additionally, Wisconsin is the only state to offer a Master Cheesemaker program, patterned on the rigorous standards of similar programs in Europe. These fine craftsmen produce nearly 2.8 billion pounds of cheese each year, over 25 percent of all domestic cheese. These quantities continue to grow to meet the nation’s demand for quality and variety of cheese from Wisconsin, America's Dairyland. Brought to you by the Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin.

BEHOLD: the MOST-AWARDED CHEESE in American history! Made by Master Cheesemaker Andy Hatch and team at Uplands in Dodgeville, Pleasant Ridge Reserve has won every award there is to win at every major cheese contest anywhere in the world.

Aged a minimum of 15 months until it reaches peak complexity, Pleasant Ridge Reserve is a natural, washed-rind masterpiece modeled after Alpine legends like Beaufort and Gruyere. Pleasant Ridge is made from pasture-grazed cow’s milk from right there on Uplands' own incredible farmstead.

Like its more famous Alpine cousins, Pleasant Ridge Reserve is magically both sweet and savory at the same time. It’s rich and salty, with a long, lush fruity finish. All that complexity means you can pair it liberally and even include it in your next fondue. The legend is growing fast, so get yourself some Pleasant Ridge today at Wisconsin Cheese Mart or Fromagination Artisan Cheeses and Perfect Companions!
