Extra-Aged Pleasant Ridge Reserve is a distinctive cheese offered by Uplands Cheese, celebrated for its depth of flavor and craftsmanship. This cheese is an older version of their flagship Pleasant Ridge Reserve, aged for more than 15 months, during which it develops a more pronounced caramel and nut-like flavor profile.
Renowned for its complexity and balance, the extra aging transforms the texture into something denser and more crystalline than its younger counterpart. Extra-Aged Pleasant Ridge Reserve is made using the summer milk of grass-fed cows, which imparts a richer, more developed flavor to the cheese.
This product has earned acclaim in the artisan cheese community and has been a recipient of numerous awards, making it a standout offering from Uplands Cheese.
About Uplands Cheese
Uplands Cheese located in Dodgeville, Wisconsin, is renowned for its artisanal cheese production, particularly the Pleasant Ridge Reserve and Rush Creek Reserve. The company operates on a dairy farm that has been milking cows for over a century. The farm is uniquely situated on Pleasant Ridge in the Driftless region of southwestern Wisconsin, which is ideal for the diverse range of grasses that contribute to the high-quality milk produced by their cows.
The farm is managed with a focus on sustainable, seasonal, and pasture-based systems. This approach includes rotational grazing, which ensures fresh pasture for the cows daily, contributing to the exceptional flavors of their milk. The company's commitment to traditional cheesemaking methods, combined with innovative approaches to enhance the unique flavors of their farm, has established Uplands Cheese as a leading example of artisanal cheesemaking in the U.S..
