Hannahbells are tiny artisanal cheeses hand made by the very shy Santos brothers from their third-generation dairy farm in Westport, Massachusetts. Some folks call them thimbles. The French call them “boutons de coulottes”, or “trouser buttons.” The brothers call them Hannahbells, after their mom!
“This cheese is a testament of the quality of their milk and the skill of their production. We find every bite sized piece of Shy Brothers to be a comforting rush of fresh farm cream and blanched almond, with a residual sweetness of champagne yeast and ripe pear. Snacking on American artisan cheese has never been better.”
MATT JENNINGS, Chef and Proprietor of Farmstead
