Pleasant Ridge Reserve is an artisanal cheese made from the non-pasteurized milk of a single herd of Wisconsin cows fed and managed using natural, "old world" practices. Uplands Cheese Company's cows graze lush pastures of Dodgeville, Wisconsin from early spring through fall, the resulting milk has better nutritional value and more varied and subtle flavors that are expressed in the delicate flavor profile of Pleasant Ridge Reserve cheese. The sweet flavors of the pasture grasses, herbs, wildflowers, and clovers are detectable in every taste of Pleasant Ridge.

Pleasant Ridge Reserve has received numerous prestigious awards. Most Recently Pleasant Ridge Reserve was awarded Best of Show at the 2005 American Cheese Society conference, an accolade it won for the second time, having been awarded Best of Show in 2001 as well. Additionally, Pleasant Ridge Reserve was named U.S. Champion at the 2003 U.S Championship cheese contest. Pleasant Ridge Reserve is the only cheese to ever win both national competitions.

Pleasant Ridge Reserve is an original cheese inspired by farmstead cheeses from the alpine provinces of southeastern France. The aging techniques they use were originally developed in the Middle Ages when cheeses similar to Pleasant Ridge Reserve were aged in limestone caves and washed frequently with a brine solution. Washing the rind keeps it free of unwanted microbes and produces a variety of pleasing flavors. Because of the time-consuming hand work involved ,this practice is rarely used today.

After about four months in the aging room, Pleasant Ridge Reserve is ready to please your palate. It will continue to change and develop variations in its flavor as it ages further.

Lives up to its name
A very "Pleasant" cheese. Creamy taste in a semi soft way. Some sweetness comes thru with a hint of sage. Excellent with unsalted mini pretzels.

Excellent Cheese
A winner for sure, excellent cheese for snacking w/crackers, fruit. I'd purchase more often, along with other fine cheeses from this source, if there were an option to recycle the cold packaging components used to ship.

Phenomenal Cheese!!!!!!!!!!!!
My first bite of this cheese was so surprisingly great - did not expect the creamy taste it is wonderful can't put a description to the flavor except had only one bite and went to my computer to order 2 more packages - you won't miss on this one - it is so special I will not put in cooking want to savor it alone or with apples maybe!

One of the best
A firm cheese with a unique and delightful taste and texture/ It's no wonder this cheese has been rated #1 in North America for the last six years.

Wisconsin's best
I am going to move back to Wisconsin just so I can get this cheese anytime I want it. One of my top 5 cheeses of all time.

Now one of my favorites
This cheese has a very noticeable flavor change from the outside to the center, and the rind can even be described as "sweet." I adore this cheese (and refusing to share), and will order it whenever it is in stock.

Complex, Rich, Amazing
My Sis brought me this cheese from SF on her most recent visit, and I'm hooked. So happy to find this on iGourmet! Slice this thin, allow it to come to room temperature, and let it work magic on your tongue. I'm not much of a fan of hard, crumbly cheese, normally, but this one transcends its class.
