Washed cheese are simply cheeses that are washed as they age. Though the process may sound simple it is complex and labor intensive.  Over weeks or months, washed cheese are meticulously hand washed with special liquids that infuse and/or aid in the production of aromatic compounds in the cheeses.

We divide our Washed Rind Cheese into the two categories of Cultured Wash and Non Cultured Wash.
Non Cultured Wash Liquids  do not contain flavor-developing bacteria so their function is to directly add the flavors of the wash to the cheese.
Cultured Wash Liquids contain bacteria that affect the composition of the cheeses to create unique tastes. Often Culture Washed cheeses are pungent, a characteristic attributed to aromatic compounds that are developed though biochemical reactions.
