About this item

Big Sky Grana is made by Willi Lehner in Blue Mounds, Wisconsin. Willi is a nomadic cheese maker, in that he does not own the cows or the production facilities he uses. He makes the cheese at neighboring dairies and brings it back to his cave to age it. Willi's property is completely wind and solar powered, and he built his aging cave himself. 

Big Sky is aged for 3 years, resulting in a multitude of crunchy tyrosine crystals. The flavor is true to the grana family, a balance of bright acidity, fruity sweetness, and nutty depth. Think of it as an American's take on Parmigiano Reggiano. 

Marvelous as part of a mac and cheese blend, or paired with your favorite beer and potato chips.
