Mt Tam

Our most popular cheese is named for a Northern California landmark: the majestic Mt. Tamalpais. Made from Straus Family Dairy’s fresh organic milk, this elegant triple cream was our first foray into aged cheeses.

Flavor notes: cultured butter with hints of white mushroom

Red Hawk

The wild bacteria that define this bold, sumptuous triple cream are native to Point Reyes; in fact, we could not make this cheese anywhere else. Aged four weeks and washed with a brine solution that encourages the sunset red-orange rind, Red Hawk captures the true essence of West Marin. 

Flavor notes: pungent aromas complement rich, smooth flavor

Chimney Rock

Our fall seasonal cheese, Chimney Rock, starts with organic Holstein milk from John and Karen Taylor's Bivalve Dairy. These rich, bloomy rind wheels are spritzed with Quady Winery's muscat wine, Essensia, then dusted with ground organic shiitake mushrooms, summer savory and black pepper.

Flavor notes: Piquant, earthy undertones balanced by high notes of orange blossom and apricot.

Pierce Pt

Named for a ranch on the Pt Reyes National Seashore, our summer seasonal cheese, Pierce Pt, starts with organic Holstein milk from John and Karen Taylor's Bivalve Dairy. These rich, bloomy rind wheels are dusted with a beautiful mixture of field flowers, chamomile, calendula and Thai Basil.

Flavor notes: Herbal and savory, with a tangy brightness from the interior paste

St Pat

Our spring seasonal cheese, St Pat, has a distinctive leaf-wrapped rind that commemorates the arrival of spring in Marin County. Made with single-source, organic milk from John & Karen Taylor’s Bivalve Dairy, these rich, creamy wheels are covered in wild nettle leaves harvested by Paradise Valley Farm in Bolinas.

Flavor notes: Mellow and tangy, with notes of smokey artichoke

Devil's Gulch

Our winter seasonal cheese, Devil's Gulch, starts with organic Holstein milk from John and Karen Taylor's Bivalve Dairy. The rich, bloomy rind wheels are dusted with a mixture of sweet and spicy ground heirloom peppers from Allstar Organics.

Flavor notes: Bright, sweet spice tempered by the rich creaminess of the paste

Inverness

This little surface-ripened cylinder packs a tangy punch. Full flavored, organic Holstein milk from John and Karen Taylor's Bivalve Dairy is set with traditional rennet and lactic acid cultures, then aged for two weeks to create our version of a delicate St Marcellin style cheese.

Flavor notes: A tangy lactic curd and a dense, creamy mouth feel

Wagon Wheel

Born out of collaboration with renowned San Francisco chefs, this smooth, tasty table cheese is ready to roll with most any meal. Try it melted, grated, grilled and snacked!

Flavor notes: A mild, sweet milk flavor that’s eminently edible

Hop Along

The newest member of the Cowgirl corral is the perfect gateway to artisan cheese: Hop Along is rich and complex while crowd-pleasing and versatile. After a gentle bath in organic hard cider and 45 days of aging, Hop Along develops an apricot hue and supple, semi-firm texture.

Flavor Notes: Aromas of apple and brioche on the rind reveal a silky, semi-firm interior with a melt-in-your-mouth texture.

Fromage Blanc

Fromage blanc is a very versatile cheese widely used in France. Ours is made with whole milk instead of cream, reducing guilt (30% less fat) and increasing pleasure (80% more flavor). It’s a favorite among Bay Area chefs. 

Flavor notes: Smooth and silky, a spoonful to be savored.
