The state of Wisconsin and the art of cheese making have become synonymous throughout the world. Enjoy learning about the cutting edge cheese Wisconsin is producing in this event. ~ About BleuMont Creamery ~ Willi Lehner has cheese making in his blood! The son of Swiss immigrants, Willi learned the craft of cheese making by his father’s side.
Early in his career he worked as a cheese maker in the Swiss Alps. This opportunity to make cheese in a copper kettle over an open
flame gave him an appreciation for traditional methods as well as the confidence to experiment. These qualities, combined with his
grasp of the connection between pastured cows and the highest quality cheese, have led to mouthwatering results! He is a master at
harnessing the rich terrior of Southcentral Wisconsin.
Deep-rooted in his craft, as well as his lifestyle, He is a commitment to sustainability. Hence his affinage cellar is underground, more closely
simulating natural cave conditions. What little power it requires is provided by the solar and wind production on his property.
Willi is an enthusiastic supporter of the Slow Food movement and a lover of high quality, nutrient dense food.
