Picture of les freres

Les Freres (the brothers) is a European style cheese was developed with care to reflect the Crave Brothers Irish-French heritage. It is a rich rind washed cheese with an earthy, fruity flavor.

The Crave brothers were raised on a 40 cow dairy farm near Beloit, Wisconsin, and began farming together in 1978 in Mount Horeb. They purchased the Waterloo dairy farm in 1980 with the goal of building a successful agribusiness. Their farm won various awards and they use sustainable methods like crop rotation and recycling nutrients.

Les Frere is a Crave Brothers classic farmstead cheese that tastes wonderful served with fruits and breads, paired with wine or in a cheese course. The cheese received a 3rd place award in the 2010 American Cheese Society Competition in the Open Category Farmstead Cheese (all milks, aged up to 60 days).
