With a 130  acre farm purchased in 1997, the four &#8220;Fireflies&#8221; initially managed their own  herd of goats. In 2006 they decided to focus all their efforts on cheesemaking.  They now purchase milk through a coop that is supplied by a local group of Amish  farmers.<\/p>\n<p>This cheese was inspired by the Spanish Manchego. Its semi-firm texture is  smooth and pleasing with a pleasant sharpness. The paste is earthy with grassy  notes and a nice, tangy finish. Aged for two to four months, this cheese ripens  beautifully for up to a year.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-<\/p>\n<p>Grinzing: Austrian Tilsit<br \/>\nmilk: pasteurized cow<br \/>\nGrinzing is an Austrian cheese modeled after Danish Tilsit. A young cheese with a soft texture, Grinzing is very mild and buttery, with a light, sweet flavor. For connoisseurs who find that German Tilsit is a bit too spicy and robust, try Grinzing for a similar, but sweeter treat. It\u2019s perfect for serving with fresh fruit as a light dessert, and pairs wonderfully with a crisp Riesling.<\/p>\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;<\/p>\n<p>Dante<br \/>\n<a title=\"Wisconsin Sheep Dairy Cooperative\" href=\"http:\/\/www.sheepmilk.biz\/\">Wisconsin Sheep Dairy Cooperative<\/a><br \/>\nmilk: sheep<br \/>\nMade with 100% pure sheep milk and aged a minimum of six months, DANTE has a rich, nutty flavor with a firm and somewhat dry texture.
