Best Cheese in America

Each year the best cheese makers in the country bring their best cheeses to the national championships. And, like a championship dog show, a winner in each category is chosen and they advance to the “Best in Show” competition. We like to call the winners the “Best Cheese in America”. Over the last seven years a Wisconsin Cheese has been chosen the Best Cheese in America five times.

Our most popular gift collection, the Best Cheese in America, features cheeses that have won a total of six Best in Show awards, 15 United States Championships and five World Championships. The Best Cheese in America, indeed. These five cheeses make for a variety that the rest of the country can’t match.

Grand Cru Surchoix

There are many varieties of "Alpine" style cheeses made in Wisconsin. This gruyere style exhibits the height of master cheese making in the state. A dense, drier cheese with a sweet and nutty flavor. Best Cheese in the World - 2015!

SarVecchio

Seven U.S. Championships, the World's Best Parmesan and the Best Cheese in America awards make this the only parmesan you will ever need.

Marieke Golden

A World Champion cheese that defies description. Gouda, cheddar,  parmesan, Swiss? It has a mix of flavors like no other cheese. What we hear most often is, “I never get tired of Golden.” A must have cheese.

Mature Gouda

Best in Show at the United States Cheese Championship. Aged between 6 and 9 months to yield a mild flavor with a supple texture.

Black Pepper BellaVitano

The only cheese to win both the Best Cheese in America AND the Best Cheese in the World, and, both in the same year! A superb Parmesan/Asiago blend, rubbed with coarse ground black peppercorns and aged for one year.
