history

Nicolau Farm's flagship aged cheese is named after Stanislaus county where it is produced from the raising of the goat to the production of the cheese.

It takes quality milk to make quality cheese, and the family of Nicolau Farms has been doing just that since the early 1900’s. Their farm is located in the fertile San Joaquin Valley, allowing them to produce some of the finest farmstead cheeses. Nicolau uses an older method of pasteurization that does not impart a cooked flavor on the milk.
