The soaking of the fig leaves in local whiskey before vacuum sealing for aging is a nod to the cheese’s namesake. According to legend, a thirsty person could leave a white rag and coins in a tree stump. When they returned later, a jar of moonshine would be waiting. The family creamery owned by Nathan and Padgett Arnold is 100% solar powered with grass fed Jersey and Jersey-Holstein cows
