Invented by Lactalis and imported from France, P’tit Basque resembles Manchego, but has a milder and more delicate flavor. Made with pure ewe’s milk, it is sweet with a nutty finish, and uniquely creamy for a semi-hard cheese. P'tit Basque is aged for a minimum of 70 days. It has a distinctive aroma of sheep's milk. Try it in a savory bruschetta, paired with tomatoes, olives, and rustic bread; or in a gourmet ham sandwich.

Bold yet restrained, these blue cheeses are handcrafted with fresh milk from local Wisconsin farms.

Equally notable is the Siciliano Salami, rich pork blended with toasty fennel seeds, bright citrus, and zesty chile. Inspired by Southern Italy, this savory, well-balanced salami features lemon zest to cut through the marbling and just the right amount of heat to keep each bite interesting.

It all started in the early 80's when Jean-Claude Guilloteau set out to create his own cheese. This passionate man devoted 10 years of his life to developing a recipe that Fromagerie Guilloteau still uses today in the French countryside. In 1981, he made his first cheese using a unique approach to cheese making that filtered the milk and kept the best it had to offer! The cheese features a unique thin rind, a unique taste and a melting texture. The cheesemaking savoir-faire has remained the same: that of Mr. Guilloteau. His knowledge has been passed on by Fromagerie Guilloteau cheese makers for over 40 years now.
