The first profile I'll do is the Beehive Cheese Company, because I am a cheese nerdlinger and also because I've met Pat and Tim, the men behind the press, and they are terribly nice and enthused about what they do.
I first discovered their cheese when my sister gave me a gift bag with Promontory Cheddar and a set of cheese knives for my birthday three years ago. Then I found their Barely Buzzed at The Good Earth in Riverdale and became a fawning groupie. They make great, creative cheeses with a strong sense of place, and they are happy to give tours of their facility to anyone who asks. You can also volunteer to go help with the cheesemaking, which I did recently with my sister-in-law. I dabble in home cheesemaking, so it was enjoyable to see the process on such a grand scale--although they are quite small compared to many cheesemakers.
