In Tillamook, we simply love cheese. It is through quality, consistency and aging that our cheese derives its unique flavor and texture. Quality Tillamook Cheese is made daily from fresh, whole milk. Our high quality supply of milk and our commitment to traditional methods are the key elements in producing award-winning cheese. All milk is tested before entering the plant.
Milk surpassing the strictest standards is directed toward cheese making as soon as it is received.
We view cheesemaking as an art form and part of this art starts with using the same recipe for the last 100 years. Modifications in the standard cheddaring process give Tillamook Cheese its characteristic flavor and texture recognized and enjoyed by cheese connoisseurs worldwide. Most of all, Tillamook employees and dairy farmers take pride in producing superior cheese products. We believe this dedication and talent can be tasted in every bite. Aging Through the aging process cheese develops the cheddar flavor characteristic of Tillamook Cheese.
