Swiss-born cheesemaker Leo Buhlman keeps stamping cheese at 80
Leo Buhlman, an 80 year old Swiss born cheesemaker in Eau Galle, Wisconsin, continues to work six 11 hour days a week at his family plant. He helped produce parmesan for Universal Foods Co. and oversees curd stirring and aging cellars at 45 degrees. He started making cheese at 17 in Switzerland and has been in the United States since 1926. He values busy work and notes parmesan resembles Swiss cheese, though aged longer.
