Cheese preservation
Interior ripened cheese
To best preserve interior-ripened, store them in the fridge between 2-4 degrees in the paper provided.
The paper will get malleable every time it is unwrapped but will not lose its efficiency to keep the cheese fresh. It is very normal that a layer of white mold grows on the paste of the cheese, this is the natural process of the rind trying to form.
This mold is not harmful; you may remove a thin slice and keep consuming the cheese. The cheese will keep for 3-4 weeks refrigerated.
“Even if it's out of your way, make a special trip!”
“The tour guide at nearby Fort Lennox recommended this fromagerie, and we loved it! We grabbed some bread and cookies to go along with our cheeses, then had a picnic lunch on their table across the street. We had a raclette, green peppercorn cheese, and a goat milk brie.
Even if it’s out of your way, make a special trip!”

Yelp“Great stop 5 minutes from the U.S. border!”
“Love this place. They produce a number of excellent cheeses. It is a very nice shop with a cheese tasting room, baguettes and other breads available, and other cheese related foods. The friendly staff is bi-lingual which makes tasting and shopping easy. If you like great cheese go to Fromagerie Fritz Kaiser – just 5 minutes above Alburgh, Vermont. ”
