Smoked Cheddar (Vermont)
Our Smoked cheddar is the real deal. It’s the cheese that doesn’t mince words and gives you a firm handshake. Cold-smoked over hickory wood in the classic Vermont tradition, this natural raw artisanal cheddar comes to life somewhere between creamy, savory and proud. With hints of salt and bacon, this sixty-day recipe is one of our best sellers, with enough grit as is, melted, or on a sandwich.

The Plymouth Cheese Factory was built in 1890 by Col. John Coolidge, a dairy farmer, looking to extend the shelf life of his milk.
Not much has changed since those days. The cheese factory is the same today as it was back then. Recipe and all.
Calvin Coolidge was born and raised in Plymouth. He was sworn in as 30th President of the U.S.A. in the middle of the night in 1923 at his childhood home.
First Lady Grace Coolidge initiated preservation of the factory. It became a very popular tourist destination, even throughout the Great Depression.
In 1998, John Coolidge sold the cheese factory to the state of Vermont with the understanding that cheese would continue to be made there as long as the building was standing.
In 2009, cheesemaker Jesse Werner submitted a proposal to revive the Plymouth Cheese Factory and the original 1890’s granular curd cheddar recipe. Jesse had attended the Vermont Institute of Artisanal Cheese (VIAC) at the University of Vermont, and also apprenticed with the renowned Québécois cheesemaker, Marc Andre St. Yves. When his proposal was accepted, Jesse jumped at the opportunity to fulfill a lifelong dream.
