CROWLEY CHEESE

Crowley Cheese is one of a very small number of genuine American cheeses. Very few cheeses originated in the United States; most came to this country with the various immigrant groups who settled here. The Crowley cheddar recipe incorporates a rinse of the cheese curds which is not part of a regular cheddar recipe. It results in a cheese which is moister, creamier, less acidic, better melting and faster aging (sharper!) than a regular cheddar. Crowley is available in many different degrees of sharpness and flavors... Crowley Cheese began in the Crowley's farm kitchen in 1824. The Crowley Cheese Factory, built next to the farm by Winfield Crowley in 1882 - and now A National Historic Place - is the oldest continuously-operating cheese factory in America.
