Home to countless acres of verdant pastureland and rolling hills, the Empire State has long been steeped in dairy farming tradition and can now boast a number of dedicated artisan and farmstead producers. Here we present a quartet of relative cheesemaking newcomers, all of which are family-owned and run. We also check in with three New York State stalwarts producing what have now become modern day classics.<\/p>\n<p><strong>HUDSON VALLEY BEAUTIES<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.cochranfarm1790.com\"><strong>Cochran Farm<\/strong><\/a> is located in the sleepy town of St. Johnsville, where the husband and wife team of Patrick and Gwen Apfel dedicate themselves to producing ch\u00e8vres with the flavor and complexity of the raw milk goat cheeses of Patrick\u2019s native France. Using only goat\u2019s milk from a nearby Amish farm, which is pasteurized and left to develop flavor overnight, the Apfels carefully hand-ladle the curds to avoid any fissures that would detract from the dense, fudgy textures of their cheeses. Their flagship St. Johnsville is an earthy delight brimming with true farmhouse flavor in the traditional French style. And Gwen\u2019s signature creation, Oriskany, perfectly balances full barnyard flavors with a bright, citrusy finish. Mohawk Mist, a young fresh ch\u00e8vre, is the quintessential breakfast cheese; It\u2019s divine on warm toast topped with jam. The highly perishable nature of Cochran Farm\u2019s cheeses dictates only next-day shipping, which limits their availability to the Northeast region.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_37936\" style=\"width: 778px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/developer83.wordpress-developer.us\/culturecheesemag\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/St-Johnsville-Jr-NYT-Dec-2018.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-37936\" class=\"size-full wp-image-37936\" src=\"https:\/\/developer83.wordpress-developer.us\/culturecheesemag\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/St-Johnsville-Jr-NYT-Dec-2018.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"768\" height=\"596\" srcset=\"https:\/\/developer83.wordpress-developer.us\/culturecheesemag\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/St-Johnsville-Jr-NYT-Dec-2018.jpg 768w, https:\/\/developer83.wordpress-developer.us\/culturecheesemag\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/St-Johnsville-Jr-NYT-Dec-2018-300x233.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-37936\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Cochran Farm St. Johnsville<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Industry veterans Shaleena and Willy Bridgham launched their company <a href=\"http:\/\/fourfatfowl.com\"><strong>Four Fat Fowl<\/strong><\/a> in historic Stephentown after years of honing their skills (marketing and cheesemaking, respectively) with Hudson Valley pioneers Old Chatham Creamery and Coach Farms.

In addition to their Baby Gouda, Jake\u2019s offers a number of flavored goudas such as Sundried Tomato and Garlic, Jalape\u00f1o Blend, Nettle Blend, and a truly superior Smoked Gouda.

East Hill\u2019s Alpine-style Silver Lake is based on a traditional Comt\u00e9 recipe, with a good bit more acidity than its European counterpart. It delivers just the right amount of satisfying crunch and a diverse bouquet of flavors, including nuts and cured meat.
