Specialty Cheeses

Willoughby is a small-format washed-rind, named for one of the Northeast Kingdom’s most beautiful destinations – Lake Willoughby. Formerly made by Ploughgate Creamery, this pudgy, buttery, nutty disc disappeared along with Ploughgate Creamery after a fire there in September 2011. After developing the product throughout much of 2012, we incorporated this cheese into the mix at Jasper Hill Farm in 2013 as our newest offering. Look for floral, fruity, and sweet flavors when young and roasted ham, peanut, and vegetal flavors when fully ripe.
