BRIGHT CHEESE AND BUTTERTastings, tours & shopThe beginning of Bright Cheese and Butter dates back to 1874 when a group of local farmers decided to establish a cheese factory to turn surplus milk into cheddar. By the 20th century, Bright Cheese had grown, along with the demand for Canadian cheddar – making it the country’s no. 2 export. This success sparked the establishment of 1,242 cheddar factories in Ontario.Over 140 years later, they are still producing award-winning cheese at their 1800’s factory in Bright, Ontario, including: aged cheddars, Asiago, Colby, Monterey jack, feta, havarti, specialty � avours and, of course, curds. All available at their shops.

ASIAGOBright’s Asiago is a � rm bodied cheese. Smooth of texture, the colour is white to light straw. This cheese starts on the palate mild but � nishes with a robust � avour reminiscent of Parmesan. The � avour enhances with age.

EXTRA OLD CHEDDARA � rm structured cheese, smooth and buttery with nutty notes throughout, and a hint of salt with a slight crystallization.

ASIAGOASIAGOASIAGO

Bright Cheese & Butter

HANDECKThis � rm, washed rind cheese is made in a similar method to typical Swiss mountain style cheeses. Handeck, aged 16 months, is � rm, rich with complex � avours and a nutty aroma.

5 BROTHERS5 Brothers, named for the cheese maker & his 4 brothers, combines traits from Gouda and a Swiss variety called Appenzeller. It has a � rm yet creamy texture and rich diverse � avours with sweeter overtones.

Gunn’s Hill Artisan Cheese

FARMSTEAD PREMIUM GOLD GOUDAStarting o� with fresh, raw milk that is thermalized, creates the full, rich � avour in this cheese, which is slightly sweet and nutty. Aged 15 to 18 months, the hints of butterscotch and caramel on the � nish, is characteristic of aged goudas.

WILD NETTLE GOUDAWild Nettle provides an herbal, earthy � avour. When combined with the creamy farmstead gouda, these combinations create an exceptional taste experience.

Mountainoak Cheese

OAXACA Similar to mozzarella, Oaxaca (pronounced oh-hock-ah), is a hand stretched curd cheese, kneaded and gently wound in balls. Oaxaca has a savoury mellow buttery � avour and is an excellent melting cheese. A little salty and mild � avour makes it one of the most popular cheeses for preparing quesadillas, tacos and other dishes calling for mozzarella.

PANEER Paneer is a soft unripened cheese made only from milk and vinegar that has a very mild and fresh � avour. Both soft and � rm paneers are available and can easily be infused with � avours from spices & herbs when cooking. Firm paneer is wonderful pan fried, alone or with spices.

WHY OXFORDI STHE

DAIRY CAPITALOxford County produces

the most milk in Ontario... 286,000,000 litres.

In 1866 James Harris produced a 7300 lb wheel of cheese that went on tour to the New York World Fair and Great Britain. This marketing ploy resulted in Oxford shipping 300,000 boxes of cheese to Great Britain every year.

HOW BIG WAS IT?It weighed as much as 10 COWS!
