| Cypress Grove Goat Cheddar is a domestically crafted aged goat cheese from Humboldt County, California, blending English cheddar traditions with unique goat milk biochemistry. Made from 100% pasteurized cultured goat milk and microbial vegetarian rennet, it features a porcelain-white, rindless block with a smooth, nutty, and savory flavor aged around two months. Its softer, meltable texture results from goat milk’s distinct protein and fat profiles. Certified American Humane, it reflects Humboldt’s terroir and sustainable practices. The cheese meets U.S. FDA cheddar standards, providing a mild, crowd-pleasing alternative to cow’s cheddar, balancing traditional methods with New World innovation. | |
