Fairfield Cheese Company

Fairfield Cheese Company Artisan and farmstead cheese and specialty foods. Expertly curated and artfully sold. Our team loves cheese and sharing it with you.

Established in 2009 Fairfield Cheese Co has been named "Best Cheese Selection in CT" by Connecticut Magazine for 2011 & 2012 and was recently mentioned by cheese expert Laura Werlin, on Food & Wine Magazine's website, as a top-five place to buy cheese in the US. Our staff is made up of people who are passionate about good food and providing a great customer service experience. Every cheese has a s

tory, a history, a farmer, and a cheesemaker behind it and it is our job as cheesemongers to tell those stories. We do it every day behind the counter, every week in cheese school and at every event we have. It is truly the best part of our job.

TGIF. What cheese are you having tonight? We are cracking open a favorite from 🧀 Harrison is a soft-ripened cow’s milk cheese wrapped in a spruce band. The spruce keeps all the gooey cheese in place and imparts a hint of woodiness to the rich, buttery, mustardy cheese. Grab a baguette or a bag of potato chips and celebrate the end of the week.

This week, we’re celebrating cheeses from WISCONSIN! Wisconsin is the home of Blakesville Creamery, one of our favorite goat cheese producers. Blakesville has been making some of the best goat cheese in the United States since 2020, and has expanded their production to include sheep’s milk cheeses as well.

We’re obsessed with their Shabby Shoe, which boasts a cheesecakey, fluffy texture with a decadently oozy creamline. We also love Mariana, a natural-rinded sheep’s milk tomme, and Llanes, which is soft, buttery, and bloomy-rinded.

Stop by the shop to try some of Blakesville’s lineup and collect your passport stamp for Wisconsin!

🧀 CT cheese lovers, today is YOUR day! 📆

If you’re collecting stamps for your American Cheese Month passport, TODAY is the LAST DAY to get your Connecticut stamp — and we’ve got the perfect cheeses to stamp it with.

Right now in our case, we’re pouring love over two beauties from :

🍄 Melinda Mae — oh friends, she is PERFECTION today. We’re talking butter and sour cream melting into one dreamy bite, with the most gorgeous mushroomy finish. Do not sleep on her.

🧀 The Gray — another stunner worthy of your board and your passport.

Next week we travel to Wisconsin 🐄🧀 — but before we head to the Dairy State, let’s show some serious love to the cheesemakers right here at home.

Small cheesemakers pour their hearts into every wheel, every rind, every bite. They need — and deserve — our support. Come in, taste something extraordinary, and get that CT stamp! ✅

📍 Come see us today before we close. Both locations are open today 10 am-6 pm. And don’t forget Mother’s Day is tomorrow. Make sure you don’t forget the cheese! 🧀
