Cypress Grove Humboldt Fog is an award-winning soft-ripened goat milk cheese handcrafted in Arcata, California. This iconic American Original features a distinctive ribbon of edible vegetable ash running through the center of each wheel, creating a striking visual presentation. The cheese offers a complex flavor profile with notes of buttermilk, fresh cream, floral undertones, herbaceous elements, and a clean citrus finish. As the cheese matures, a cream line develops near the rind and the flavor intensifies from delicate and tangy when young to rich and earthy when fully ripened.

The Mini format consists of individual 1-pound wheels, perfect for entertaining or personal enjoyment. Humboldt Fog has earned numerous international accolades including Super Gold at the 2024 World Cheese Awards, Best in Class at the 2024 World Championship Cheese Contest, and multiple American Cheese Society awards. The bloomy white rind is edible and complements the creamy interior texture. This cheese pairs exceptionally well with honey, prosciutto, tart apples, Marcona almonds, fig jam, and fresh baguette. Wine pairings include Sauvignon Blanc, Pinot Grigio, and Pinot Noir depending on ripeness. For optimal enjoyment, remove from refrigeration one hour before serving and store wrapped in wax or parchment paper at 32-40°F to allow continued ripening.
