A cheese producer is a person or company that makes cheese from milk. They use various techniques to transform milk into different types of cheese, such as cheddar, mozzarella, or brie. The process involves curdling the milk, separating the curds from the whey, and then aging the cheese to develop its flavor and texture. Cheese producers often source milk from dairy farms, which can be from cows, goats, or sheep. They may also focus on specific production methods, such as artisanal or industrial, to cater to different markets and consumer preferences.
