Organic Rogue River Blue Whole Wheel and wedge on cutting board

Blue cheese

Rogue River Blue

We look forward to celebrating this year’s autumnal release of Rogue River Blue on September 22, 2024. 

As fall comes to the Rogue Valley, cooler temperatures and wet weather bring renewed growth to the pastures. This is when our cow’s milk is at its best – and it’s only during these months that we make our limited edition, seasonal Rogue River Blue – a cheese named World Champion at the 2019/20 World Cheese Awards. After 9 to 11 months of careful tending in our aging caves, our team hand-wraps each wheel in organic, biodynamic Syrah grape leaves that have soaked in pear spirits. On the Autumnal Equinox each year, we celebrate the release of the year’s new Rogue River Blue Cheese.

 

*The exact weight of each wedge and wheel varies due to the handmade nature of our product.

Best blue cheese ever

I first heard of this cheese after it won the best in the world. I was able to find a small 16th of a wheel at my local grocery. Since then we have purchased multiple wedges and full wheels to eat.

It is a great cheese with a silky smooth texture mixed with little crystalline structures sprinkled throughout. I think it was a well deserved winner of worlds best.
