Cheese

Cheese is our central passion at County Thyme Farm. It's the heartbeat of rustic refinement and all good things country: freshness, pastures and artisanal expression.

We focus on cheese made with local water buffalo milk.

Water buffalo milk is creamy with a slight tang. It lends itself well to the pasta filata cheese family--fresh cheeses that are stretched and formed with heat and skill.

Yogurt

Our all-natural yogurt is made with `100% heritage breed buffalo milk. This sweet, mild and creamy delight is free of thickeners, stabilizers and preservatives.

Burata

If Dionysus invited Aphrodite to dinner, he would definitely serve Burrata. The contrast of fresh tangy mozzarella with creamy stracciatella is a gormandizer's delight. We also have a burrata version with Canadian black truffles!
