"There's efficiency and strength when we work together." That's the principle on which the Cabot Creamery Cooperative was founded by the farmers of Cabot, Vermont in 1919. Dedicated farmer-owners provide the fresh milk that their cheese makers skillfully craft into award-winning cheddar. The Cheddar Master keeps a careful eye on the aging process, taking core samples along the way. When he gives the nod, we know our cheese has reached perfection.There's an old school of thought among cheddar scholars - the older, the better. We are proud to offer a rare, limited edition classic, Old School Cheddar - simply Cabot's oldest cheddar ever. Old School has been left to age undisturbed in their library of select cheddars for over five years. Old School is exactly what this cheese is - textbook cheddar crafted the old-fashioned way. Don't miss out on this very special cheese! Beautiful presentation makes this two pound block a fantastic gift for the Cheddar lover in your life!

Comments about Old School Cheddar - 5 Year:

One taste and this cheese catapulted into my top 5 cheddar fav's. This is the best offering from Cabot that I have ever had. Indeed, up there with the best of the best in the world of cheddar. Very sharp with complex hints of fruit and nuts and a smooth creamy finish with a satisfying cheddary aftertaste. It is a bit salty and it crumbles but that slight failing is insufficient to detract too much from this wonderful cheddar. Cabot needs to concentrate on this style of old school production...purely because I want more and it is very hard to get a hold of. A report card of A+
