Would this be the freshest cheese possible? Considering that cheese is traditionally not fresh in the slightest.

Oh, but it can be. Farmer's cheese and other fresh milk cheese types curdle the milk proteins using an acid reaction to citrus or vinegar rather than fermentation.

Fresh cheese is typically called curd. Curd needs to be compressed and aged to make actual cheese.
