Knaus Cheese

has been owned and operated by the Knaus Family since 1975. They are artisan cheese makers which specialize in handcrafted Italian cheese such as Parmesan, Asiago, and Romano. Star Dairy is in the tiny central Wisconsin town of Weyauwega. Jim Knaus is the president and is passionate about cheese making and takes great pride in his cheeses. This passion also includes a sense of fun. Jim made the Guinness Book of World Records in 1995 for making the longest string cheese in the world (1.5 miles long). Strong men and women carried it through the town on their shoulders.
