Champaign business home to top 60 cheese in the world
CHAMPAIGN, Ill. (WCIA) — One business in Champaign is getting some recognition from Culture Magazine. A cheese from Prairie Fruits Farm and Creamery was ranked as one of the top 60 cheeses in the world.
The businesses' award-winning cheese is called 'Little Bloom on the Prairie.' It's a mix blend between Jersey cow's milk from Kilgus Farmstead and Prairie Fruits goat's milk.

'A stellar recognition. We're very honored that they had selected us. It's a testament to Kato Lindholm, who's our head cheesemaker, and Lisa Little, who's the creamery manager here. They're passionate about our cheesemaking process and really want to put out the best product possible,' Jeffery Brokish Prairie Fruits Farm and Creamery owner said.
The award-winning cheese won't be available again until mid-March. If you're curious about the taste, owners said they have a similar version called Snow Fog.
