Best Cheeses:

  • Cirrus - Buttery and mild with a faint aroma and flavor of mushrooms. Aged just 2-3 weeks before being sold.
  • Seastack - Buttery and slightly salty and tangy like the flavor of fresh cream.
  • Trailhead - Aged 3-6 months for a semi-hard texture and mild, earthy flavor

      Cheesemakers:

      Mt. Townsend Creamery models their cheeses after French styles but puts their own touch on the process. They buy their milk from two local creameries. Mt. Townsend Creamery is owned by three men who have a shared passion for artisanal cheese.
