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.
“Well worth the detour!”
“We really had a great stay! The staff were very efficient and pointed out several kinds of cheese. We found the prices to be reasonable and of a high standard. The store sells bread, chocolate and other products. The grocery store was easy to find after crossing the border into Alburg, Vermont. ”

“Beautiful cheese store”
“Wow, who would believe that just next to the border, away from main roads there is a beautiful cheese store offering unique and delicious cheeses produced right there. Thanks to the American Yelpers who actually wrote reviews about it, as I discovered its existence using Yelp rather then using the colourful local tourist maps. I may have been ignorant that Fromagerie Fritz Kaiser exists, but this is not the case for the rest of the Quebec population.
The store although very spacious was crowded. People kept coming and buying kilograms of cheeses. Yet service was fast and efficient. The speciality of the fromagerie is raclette, but they also have varieties of other cheeses. Some of the cheeses are available on the counter for tasting. We were also offered to try the cheeses we were interested in, which we ended up buying of course. Prices are competitive. I’m certainly coming back as I did not buy every single cheese type and I definitely feel I have to try them all, including the St Ambroise beer washed one. For now the aged Douanier is the absolute winner! ”
