Vermont cheddar · Burlington
Sharp, firm, often clothbound cheddar made from Vermont cow's milk. The state's defining food export and the centre of every Burlington cheese plate.
Vermont cheddar dates to 18th-century English settlers in the Green Mountains. Cabot Creamery formed as a farmer-owned co-op in Cabot, Vermont in 1919 and built the export reputation; Shelburne Farms began producing farmstead cheddar at the 1899 Webb-Vanderbilt estate in 1980; Jasper Hill in Greensboro now cellars cheese for cheesemakers across the state. Clothbound, raw-milk and aged styles range from Bayley Hazen Blue to Cabot Clothbound to Shelburne Farms' two-year aged.
