Award-Winning Colorado-Made Washed-Rind Cheese
The Story Behind the Wheel

🍞 ColoRouge: Built on Fermentation, Not Hype
“Bread taught me work and flow, beer taught me yeast, lol, and to work... Wine and wood taught us to work together with patience. Cheese brought it all together.” - Robert, MouCo Co-Founder
ColoRouge didn’t come first, but it came with intention. This is where years of fermentation practice finally had room to get bold—not chaotic bold, but balanced bold, complex bold, alluringly bold.
It’s what happens when you understand how microbes behave, when you care how the rind breathes, and when you want a cheese that tastes like it comes from somewhere real.
