The Art of Smoking

At Pineland Farms Dairy Company in Bangor, Maine, we elevate the art of cheesemaking with our Smoked Cheddar. Crafted from premium cheddar and the milk of cows raised on local Maine family farms, our cheese undergoes a meticulous smoking process. We use a carefully chosen blend of Maple and Beech wood chips, which infuses the cheese with a richness and depth of flavor that is unmistakably Pineland Farms. Achieving the right balance is an art—our goal is for each bite to remind you of sitting around a campfire. Over the years, we have refined our use of wood and smoking duration to achieve what we call the perfect smokiness. This smokiness enhances rather than overpowers the cheese’s natural flavors. This precise process underscores our commitment to utilizing local resources and adhering to traditional methods, ensuring that each batch of Smoked Cheddar reaches the optimal level of smokiness.

A Medley of Flavors

Pineland Farms Smoked Cheddar delivers a medley of flavors in every bite. The distinct smokiness enhances the cheddar’s natural tanginess and creamy texture, while adding layers of subtle nuttiness and earthiness. Ideal for savoring on its own, melting into your favorite dishes, or pairing with fine wine, this cheese is designed to impress with its complexity and balance.

Award-Winning Quality

Our commitment to quality has not gone unnoticed. In 2013, Pineland Farms Smoked Cheddar was honored with a third-place medal at the American Cheese Society contest, reaffirming its status as a high-quality cheese that stands out both locally and nationally.
