is a wholesale distribution company that specializes in pairing quality products made by thoughtful dairy farmers with customers who love cheese as much as we do. Our passion for cheese stems from our passion for people - from the farmers, to the production process, to getting it into your hands. 

Owner and operator Caroline Hesse brings with her over 10 years of experience in the cheese industry, from a raw milk cheesemaking apprenticeship to various cheesemonger positions around NYC at Lucy’s Whey, Dean & Deluca, and Crown Finish Caves where she mastered the fine art of cheese aging, or affinage, and ran their wholesale division. 

At C. Hesse Cheese we are dedicated to providing you with impeccable service and the very best selection of cheeses sourced domestically and internationally. 

We are based in East Williamsburg, Brooklyn but are pleased to ship nationwide!
