Caves of Faribault: The Art of Cave-Aged Cheese
Caves of Faribault is a cheese company based in Minnesota that specializes in producing cave-aged cheese. With a fearless approach to cheese-making, the company has been able to nurture and develop some of the most unique and flavorful cheeses in the market.

Over time, they discovered that aging their cheeses in caves gave them a distinct flavor and texture that couldn't be replicated anywhere else.
Today, Caves of Faribault continues this tradition by aging their cheeses in sandstone caves located beneath the city's streets. These caves provide the perfect environment for aging cheese as they maintain a constant temperature and humidity level throughout the year.
One of Caves of Faribault's most popular products is their award-winning blue cheese called "Amablu." This cheese is made from cow's milk and aged for at least 60 days in the sandstone caves. It has a creamy texture with bold flavors that are both tangy and sweet.
Another popular product from Caves of Faribault is "St. Pete's Select." This semi-hard cheese is made from sheep's milk and aged for at least six months. It has a nutty flavor with hints of caramel that make it perfect for pairing with wine or beer.
In addition to these two products, Caves of Faribault also produces several other types of cave-aged cheeses such as "Jeffs' Select Gouda," "Sofia," "Fini
