THERE'S A REASON WISCONSIN BREAKS EVERY MOLD


CELEBRATING
25 YEARS
OF MASTERY

We've been making cheese longer than Wisconsin has been a state. Cheese is our
thing. But when we created the Master Cheesemaker program, we had no idea the
impact all that mastery would have. We couldn't foresee our dominance at award
shows around the world, or that we would go on to make more kinds of cheese than
anywhere else on the planet.




OUR MASTERS
GUIDE THE WHEY

The program allows makers to perfect both the art and the science of their
craft. They leave anxious to spread that knowledge throughout their teams.
That's why the program is a quality multiplier that reverberates across the
state and around the world.


OUR MASTERS
REINVENT THE WHEEL

Masters leave the program with more than a medal. They leave hungrier to explore
all that's possible with cheese. The program is a major reason we make over 600
different kinds of cheese, more than any other state or country.


OUR MASTERS
ACE EVERY TEST

We don't give Masters medals to just anyone. You have to really want it. You
must be a licensed Wisconsin cheesemaker for 10 years, and then you have to
focus on one type of cheese with coursework and regularly submitted samples for
an additional 3 years. Easy, cheesey, right?

In Wisconsin, we make more flavors, varieties, and styles of cheese than
anywhere else in the world. We believe in tradition, producing everything from
Italian classics, like parmesan and ricotta, to swiss cheese and cheddar
varieties. But every Wisconsin cheesemaker is an innovator as well, which is why
we have so many Wisconsin originals, like colby and muenster. Whether it’s a
grilled cheese sandwich, potatoes au gratin, or a charcuterie board, Wisconsin
cheese makes every dish and recipe tastier.
