American Cheese Society Judging & Competition Awards - 1st Place

O'Banon is an artisanal cheese produced by Capriole, a farmstead goat cheese company based in Greenville, Indiana. The cheese is a unique variation of the traditional French Banon cheese. O'Banon is made from goat's milk, and its distinctive characteristic comes from being wrapped in chestnut leaves that have been soaked in Woodford Reserve bourbon.


This process imparts a subtle woody and boozy flavor to the cheese, enhancing its creamy texture and tangy taste. This product reflects Capriole's commitment to high-quality, handcrafted cheeses with a distinct American twist.
