Artisan

Cheese
About
Old Hill Foods
Old Hill Foods is a cheese manufacturing
unit based in Mukteshwar, Uttarakhand
in the central Himalayan region of India.

We make artisan cheese varieties with

locally sourced Himalayan milk using
traditional age-old European techniques.

Since inception, our goal is to create a

sustainable and socially responsible
enterprise making the best quality artisan
cheese in India, whilst providing
employment to people from below
poverty line households.

We are a fair trade organization offering

fair wages to our staff and fair price for
milk to households that we source from.
Artisan
Cheese
Old Hill Cheese is 100% natural. The
cheese is made from only 3
ingredients: pasteurised milk, microbial
rennet and salt.

We do not use any preservatives or

artificial ingredients in our cheese.
Since we use microbial rennet, our
cheese is suitable for vegetarians.

Owing to the high quality of Himalayan

milk as well as traditional methods of
cheesemaking, our cheese has
exceptional flavour. We make soft as
well as hard cheese like Gouda,
Parmesan, Cheddar etc and do a few
variants with flavours like spirulina,
dandelion, paprika etc.
