The first reference of it's kind, The Atlas of American Artisan Cheese highlights 345 of the best cheese-makers in the United States today. Many come from tiny, family-owned creameries. Each profile describes a cheese-maker, its history, its cheeses, whether from cow, sheep, or goats milk, availability, location, details on the cheese-making process and suggestions for the best wine and beer pairings. The Atlas captures America's genius for local artisan cheese, a capacity for adaptation, experimentation and innovation, while following Old World traditional methods.
