Carr Valley
Local Goats Made Good
Cheese and Champagne samples chevre and a goat’s-milk blue cheese called Billy Blue, from Donnay Dairy in Kimball, MN and Carr Valley in La Valle, WI, respectively. Both get high marks, and are available at Surdyk’s.
MoreSweet Marisa
Cheese and Champagne tries Marisa, a Wisconsin original cave-aged sheep milk cheese by Master Cheesemaker Sid Cook of Carr Valley. The verdict? “Creamy and mellow, it practically melts in your mouth. Its smooth paste is punctuated with just a few little crystals. I could snack on Marisa like candy.”
