Every wheel of cheese in this year's holiday collection has been resting in the cave since spring, some longer. When you send one to a client or employee, you're sending a gift crafted by time and tradition, not manufactured or mass-produced. Let our team help you send a truly unique client gift this holiday season.
Our handcrafted cheeses are aged in a limestone cave that's carved into the hillside behind our creamery in Howard, Pennsylvania. Our cave sits at 55 degrees and 85 to 90 percent humidity, and every wheel rests there for months, turned by hand, until it's ready to send.
Every Goot Essa gift can be customized with a branded tag or cutting board, along with a personal note. Explore the collections below to find the right fit for your clients or team. If you're not sure which one to choose, our team is happy to help you decide."
Cave-Aged, Not Rushed. Our cheeses spend real time in the cave before they ever leave the farm. That's true of every collection on this page.
Made on a Working Farmstead. Goot Essa started in 2001 in Howard, Pennsylvania. The cheese is still handcrafted here, in small batches, by hand.
Handled From Start to Finish. Submit your quote request, and our team will take it from there. Sizing, personalization, and delivery scheduling are included.
