Description

“Hand waxed and aged approximately one year”
Hand waxed and aged approximately one year. Our number one most popular cheese, this is a great sharp cheddar, hands down. Melts wonderfully when used for cooking.

This is our number one selling cheese. Is it the iconic red wax bar that just seems to say “great cheese inside!” or maybe that it’s the “perfect age”? One year old cheddar cheese gets a nice sharp finish to it, but is simply a palate pleaser. It’s a great addition to any cheese tray, melts superbly, and is smooth to the taste.

I remember back to 2006, when we were first attempting to wax our bars of cheese. It was much more difficult than we thought it would be. We attempted to go the self-taught route but were still having trouble with wax that was too hot, too cool, and didn’t seal the cheese well enough.

We were so thankful to connect with some friends from Vermont who had been in the cheese business for many years. They allowed me to come for a whole day of cheese waxing at their facility. I joined their team and worked side by side with their employees, learning the art of this unique packaging. It is all done by hand!

To this day, our customers enjoy watching our employees continue in this artistic packaging we have mastered. We have been training girls to do this since our opening in 2006. It’s amazing how fast it can actually be done, with no automation.

My husband and I take this cheese when we travel and share it with people we meet along the way. The cheese and the packaging speak for themselves. I love the way this cheese is presented in any gift. It’s the first one I will choose when I am putting together a sampler for a customer!

Cheese Making Process

At September Farm, cheesemaking begins with fresh whole milk from local dairies, carefully pasteurized to preserve its natural quality. Once warmed to ninety degrees, cheese culture is added to develop flavor and rennet is introduced to set the milk into a custard-like curd. The curds are cut into delicate cubes, gently cooked, and salted to balance flavor and act as a natural preservative. At this stage, we may add special seasonings—like those in our national award-winning Chives and Dill Jack—before pressing the curds into hoops and moving them into aging. Depending on the style, the result is either the rich sharpness of Cheddar or the smooth, creamy character of Monterey Jack, with every block hand-packed, cut, and cared for using time-honored methods.

“I love that September Farm is family-owned and committed to crafting authentic, small-batch cheeses using traditional methods. Their aged cheddar is unlike anything I've had—rich, sharp, and creamy all at once. It’s not just about taste; it’s the comfort and warmth that comes with each bite. I keep their smoked Gouda in stock for relaxing evenings, and it pairs beautifully with wine or crackers.
