1 Year Select & 3 Year Reserve

Award-winning, hand-selected vats of classic Wisconsin aged Cheddar

1 Year: International Cheese Awards 2014 – Silver Winner

3 Year: American Cheese Society 2012 – 1st Place Winner

Deer Creek 1 Year Select AA Grade is the perfect example of what an aged Wisconsin Cheddar is famous for – a full, creamy, melt-in-your-mouth flavor that makes you want to take another bite.

Deer Creek 3 Year Reserve AA Grade is a classic Extra Sharp Cheddar with a rich, bold flavor and an unexpected creamy finish.

As both cheeses age, Deer Creek’s team of Wisconsin licensed cheese graders continually evaluate and inspect the 1 and 3 Year Cheddars to be sure that the chosen vats meet our specific standards of flavor, texture, body, and finish indicative of award-winning, classic Wisconsin aged Cheddars.
