Fresh Cheese

O’Banon

Made by Capriole Creamery · Greenville, Indiana, USA

★ —Not rated yet

Wrapped up like a gift in bourbon-soaked chestnut leaves, O’Banon is all the excuse needed for a celebration. This fresh goat cheese round initially has a bright, tart-fruit flavor balanced by an underlying sweetness and mild tannic note. The paste is dense but softly cloudlike, a testament to Capriole’s hand-ladling process.
