Cypress Grove Unveils Bold New Flavor: Olive & Herb

Arcata, CA — Cheese lovers, rejoice! Cypress Grove is thrilled to announce the launch of its newest creation, Olive & Herb, debuting at the Winter Fancy Food Show in Las Vegas at Booth #716. This fresh goat cheese features green olives and a hint of rosemary, blended into its creamy fresh goat cheese for bold, savory flavors that elevate everything from charcuterie boards to midnight snacks.

With green olives and aromatic herbs, Olive & Herb delivers the perfect tangy combination for adding a touch of sun-drenched California to any bite.

Cypress Grove continues to show that goat cheese is delicious, adventurous, and endlessly versatile. Whether you’re spreading it on a bagel, crumbling it onto a salad, or enjoying it straight up with a gin back, this cheese is sure to be your new obsession.

“Olive & Herb is our way of inviting you to experience something fresh, exciting, and unapologetically bold, but also still cheese-forward,” says Christy Khattab, Marketing Director at Cypress Grove. “It’s a flavor explosion that captures the essence of California cuisine which borrows heavily from the Mediterranean along with the creamy texture and clean flavors we’re known for.”
