Discover a beloved artisan American cheese that captures the heart of Wisconsin’s rich dairy traditions. Lake Effect is made with fresh, locally sourced goat’s milk, with a unique texture and a fresh, buttery taste that has quickly made it a favorite among cheese enthusiasts.
This cheese develops a balanced, creamy profile and classic subtle notes of tanginess from the goat’s milk, with an earthy finish that we love. Its natural rind adds a rustic touch to the taste, creating a delicate balance between smooth, fresh milk and complex, savory undertones.

Serving Suggestions
We love this cheese for its incredible versatility - how it's at home on a cheese board but it's also amazing as snacking cheese. You'll adore it paired with crisp white wines or an IPA. Spread it over warm, rustic bread, or melt it into recipes that call for a gentle, savory flavor that won't overwhelm. It’s also wonderful alongside fresh fruits like figs or apples, for a crisp, juicy bite.
Ingredients: Pasteurized goat's milk, cultures, rennet, sea salt.
