AmaBlu, also known as Treasure Cave Blue Cheese, is an artisan blue cheese, made with unpasteurized cow milk. It is produced by the Caves of Fairbault, an artisanal cheese company in southern Minnesota. AmaBlu was the first blue cheese to be made in the United States, in 1936. It was originally called Treasure Cave Blue Cheese. The cheese is aged in a number of man-made and natural sandstone caves. The cheese is made from raw milk that is locally produced and tested to insure quality and safety.
