La Maison Alexis de Portneuf, Inc.
More than one hundred fifty years ago, Alexis Cayer settled on virgin land surrounded by mountains and valleys, the future site of Portneuf, which he would come to help build. In passing down his vision and knowledge he became patriarch to a family of landscapers, builders, farmers, and finally, cheese makers.
Today, Quebec is recognized across the country for the quality of its fine cheeses. Founded on tradition and family values, La Maison Alexis de Portneuf Inc. pays tribute to dedicated artisans.
At Alexis de Portneuf as Fine Cheese Makers we are committed to preserve the crafted quality and authentic character of every single specialty cheese we produce. True to tradition, we take special care during each stage of production.

At Alex de Portneuf no recipe can replace the soul of the cheese maker.
