Ragged Point
Ragged Point is a small format bloomy rind triple crème cow’s milk cheese named for the gateway to Big Sur just North of our farmstead. The paste stays firm as the cheese matures, and does not become overly soft. As Ragged Point ages past four weeks, it takes on a peppery character and a distinct cream line underneath the rind forms. We enjoy this cheese with apples, honey and crusty bread. We were honored to be selected as a finalist at the Good Food Awards and took home 3rd Place at the American Cheese Society in the Triple Cream category with this little button. Available Year Round
Big Sur
Big Sur is a small format bloomy rind, ash coated, triple crème mixed cow and goat milk cheese named for the iconic coastline where we are located. The paste is smooth, lactic, light and stays firm as the cheese matures. The balance of farmstead goat milk and local cow milk provides a bit of goaty brightness without being overwhelming. The vegetable ash adds a visual distinction from our Ragged Point and also helps maintain the rind pH. Available Spring/Summer

Dairies along the California Coast from Monterey to Big Sur were made famous for their production of Jack cheese, and we hope to honor this tradition with our rendition.

We like to pair this cheese with tart, crisp apples, or a light beer. Available Year Round
