Wisconsin, USA

Description

Wisconsin has long been known as the cheese capital of America, it's residents refer to themselves as 'cheese heads' and the region is known as Dairyland. This area produces more cheese that any other part of the country, but until recently the traditional cheese types were replaced by bland, mass-produced Swiss and Cheddar. Host Will Studd visits several new and exciting farmstead cheese producers, including Upland's Cheese Company, and Willi Leher, from Bleu Mont Dairy explains how he ripens cheese in an underground cave. Finally, Will heads for the hills for a look at Hidden Springs Creamery where a new organic sheep's milk cheese is being made with the help of the local Amish farmers.
