This cheese is an expression of love for the landscape of the American Southwest; the rind is almost as stunning as a Canyonlands vista. Beautifully layered like Entrada Sandstone, the paste of Red Butte is tumbled with Hatch Chiles and complex flavors.

Honoring the landscape
Red Butte began as a collaboration with Harmons Neighborhood Grocer during Hatch Chile season. The cheese was such a success that Harmons suggested it should be available to everyone. Today, it is our second-best-selling cheese.
Named after Red Butte Garden, a botanical garden at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City, this cheese reflects our deep Utah roots. Beehive Cheese has long supported Red Butte Garden, making the name a natural choice to honor our connection to the community.
Such a tasty cheese I struggle sharing it with even my favorite people 🤭
I hope it’s available year round!

This might "bee" my favorite cheese!
This cheese is unlike anything else and so delicious. It is my pick if I'm doing a cheese board for a party, and there are no leftovers. Great job BeeHive Cheese!

Amazing
The cheese monger at our local grocery store recommended I give the Hatch Chile cheese a try and I have become obsessed.
