We’re fond of saying that the heart of Artisanal Cheese Center -- the first true affinage center established in the United States -- is a five-chambered one because we host five custom-designed cheese caves masterminded by the world-renowned French affineur Philippe Alléosse and refrigeration expert Jean-Claude Soilen.

Because different cheeses age at different rates and in different climates, each of our caves is tailored to provide the ideal conditions for the type of cheese it nourishes. We divide our cheeses into five categories: goat, blue, washed rind, bloomy rind, and tome. Our state-of-the-art facility is the only one of its kind in the country, featuring five colossal caves custom-designed and constructed to control temperature and humidity -- to one-tenth of a degree! Once we receive our gourmet artisanal cheeses from producers all over the world, we have the unique equipment and knowledge required to age each one to perfection in the ideal conditions.
