There's A Cheese Haven Hiding In Montana And It's Everything You've Dreamed And More
Hello. Is it brie you’re looking for? Cheesy puns aside, there’s a ridiculously amazing creamery in Polson every cheese-loving Montanan should see. If you’ve never heard of Flathead Lake Cheese,we’ll tell you where to find the Gouda stuff (last one, promise).

The little yellow building faces the bay.

When owners Wendi and Joe first set up shop, they didn't anticipate the locals and tourists that would want to come and see the place. They never built a tasting room, although they'll be happy to give you a tour and a taste when they're not busy cheese-making. Instead, they opened the walk-up window to interact with their visitors.

From their Doorstop Gouda (which was named after Joe made a joke about using it as a doorstep if it didn't sell) to their earthy Hoppin' Mad Gouda, they seem to have perfected the art of this mild cheese.

That's where they make the most sales and meet the most new friends.

You can also order a few popular cheeses online if you can't make it to Polson anytime soon.
Every cheese-lover should stop by Flathead Lake Cheese at least once. And while you’re at it, check out this epic cheese farm in Victor.
