Sartori's Limited Edition Extra-Aged Goat cheese was first crafted by Sartori Master Cheesemaker Pam Hodgson and her team. "What interested me in making a goat's milk cheese was my father. A few years ago, he had purchased a herd of goats to trim his land. The goats became part of the family, and soon, my children were showing goats at the local county fair. My creativity started to flow and the team and I decided to experiment with goat's milk to make cheese using traditional Italian hard-style cheesemaking techniques," states Hodgson.

Introduced in 2012, Sartori's Extra-Aged Goat cheese has garnered international acclaim after receiving a gold medal at the Global Cheese Awards held in the United Kingdom. "What's different about our goat cheese is that it's aged longer than a typical, fresh goat cheese. The aging process helps to balance out the cheese, creating savory, caramel notes," states Hodgson. Sartori partners with LaClare Farms to source the freshest, highest quality goat's milk. LaClare Farms realizes that making award winning cheese requires excellent milk so they provide a quality, balanced ration feed to their goats.

Sartori's Limited Edition Extra-Aged Goat cheese will be available at specialty cheese shops throughout the United States this October through December. Additionally, a limited supply will be available for sale at the Sartori online cheese shop, www.sartoricheese.com. For news and updates, follow Sartori on Facebook and Twitter @Sartori_Cheese.
