The Fawn

Sweet & Nutty Specialty Cheddar

International Cheese Awards 2017 Gold Winner for Best USA Mature Cheddar

This traditional 22 lb. daisy wheel Cheddar is completely handcrafted from wholesome rBST-free milk from Wisconsin. A unique culture set gives this young cheese an award-winning, sweet nuttiness with a full, complex Cheddar flavor not found in traditional bandage-wrapped Cheddars. As the flavor of The Fawn unfolds in your mouth, it seems delicate at first, yet gives you a rich finish that lingers on.
