ABOUT US

MAKING CHEESE IS OUR FAMILY BUSINESS

Cheesemakers was founded by James C. At a young age, James learned how to make dairy products from his aunt and uncle on the family farm in South Texas. Together the family made fresh butter, soft cheese curds and buttermilk. While the family didn’t know it at the time, making dairy products together was the start of the thriving family business that

they are proud of today. At Cheesemakers, we take pride in our roots. Cheesemaking in Texas is not common, but James, the son of a farmer and rancher, felt strongly about manufacturing his cheese in the Lone Star State. Today, the Cheesemakers manufacturing plant in Montgomery County has co-packing capabilities, pilot plant product development, label development, unique sizes and packaging options, and nutritional database and testing capabilities. CERTIFIED, SAFE, AND PROFESSIONAL FACILITY

All Cheesemakers products are manufactured in an FDA, and Texas Dept. of Health inspected facility that is certified by a 3rd Party Audited facility by Silliker, Inc (a Mérieux NutriSciences company) and GMP (Good Manufacturing Practices and Food Safety audit). We are happy to produce custom, private label products to your specifications! It’s further testament to the innovation, creativity, and dedication of the owner and staff of Cheesemakers! You can find Cheesemakers products: Jaimito Mexican Style Cheeses (named for James’ son) and Lone Star Chevre (named for the location of the plant in Montgomery County, Texas birthplace of the Lone Star Flag and his daughter as she is his “Little Miss Lone Star”), in your favorite gourmet grocery stores, authentic restaurants and fine hotels.

🧀 CHEESE OF THE MONTH: COTIJA 🧀
“Our flautas de barbacoa are truly elevated by the addition of Jaimito Cotija Cheese. This cheese brings a remarkable balance of flavor that perfectly complements the rich, savory notes of the barbacoa. Its dry-aged aroma adds depth that enhances each bite, while its fresh, crumbly texture provides a delightful contrast.”
— Manny Castillo, Chef at Asadas Grill & Cocktails in Austin, TX 🔥
We’re proud to partner with restaurants that turn every dish into an experience. Huge thank you to Asadas Grill for showcasing the bold, authentic flavor of our Jaimito Cotija Cheese 🙌

February’s Cheese of the Month is Muenster!

This month, we’re celebrating the smooth, creamy goodness of Muenster Cheese, proudly crafted by Cheesemakers, Inc..

Take a look at the delicious application of the Muenster cheese by our friends at Fonda San Miguel in Austin, Texas!

Mild and buttery in flavor, Muenster features a light cream-colored interior with a thin orange rind and a smooth, melty texture that’s perfect for baked dishes, sandwiches, casseroles, and more.

Warm, comforting, and incredibly versatile, it brings rich flavor and beautiful melt to every bite.

Taste the tradition. Savor the craftsmanship. 🧡
