What does it take to build an American creamery from the ground up and keep getting better at it?

@carawarren sits down with Brian Civitello, head cheesemaker at @mysticcheeseco, to talk about Mystic’s 13-year journey from making cheese in a shipping container to crafting some seriously delicious American takes on British-style territorial cheeses. They get nerdy about milled curds, Ayrshire milk, and Connecticut terroir, while digging into Brian’s cheesemaking roots, his time learning in Europe, and what he’s discovered along the way.

Plus, Brian shares what makes Whaledale and Gray different, what he wishes more American cheesemakers knew, and what he’s most proud of after more than a decade at Mystic.

With years of international cheese judging between them, it’s no surprise that their book would be far more than a simple global guide to cheese.
