1000 Islands River Rat Cheese

Clayton’s favorite cheese store

At 1000 Islands River Rat Cheese, we carefully select and age our New York cheddars to perfection in a controlled environment. This aging results in a sharp and tangy finish to our cheddars.

In addition to our internationally known River Rat Cheddars, we also have a number of north country treats which are made available throughout the United States. Among these delectable treats are fresh cheese curds, croghan bologna, pure New York State maple syrup and a hot as hell mustard and horseradish that really has a kick.

1000 Islands River Rat Cheese is supplying much of New York State with its famous squeaky cheese curds, aged cheddars, flavored cheddars, specialty cheese spreads, croghan bologna, maple syrups and much more. Visitors from all over have come to taste the famous “River Rat” cheese!
