The Indigo Bunting
An ultra creamy sheep’s milk and cow’s cream blue cheese
First Place Winner — Wisconsin State Fair Dairy Products Competition
The Indigo Bunting is a rare, ultra creamy Blue cheese. The milk is soft, silken, and rich in flavor. On its own, the sheep's milk is extremely creamy. But in order to create this extra special Blue we added a liberal amount of cow's milk cream to create The Indigo Bunting's extraordinary velvety texture. This extreme decadence combined with a distinctive, yet delicate Blue strain is a beauty to behold.
