We have cheeses from California to Switzerland and everywhere in between! Our award-winning cheese department is under the supervision of our long-time cheesemonger, Maria Sanchez. She can help you pick out the perfect cheese for snacking, charcuterie, a recipe or for a holiday treat. We carry a wide variety of brand name cheeses as well as a few we've made our own, such as Sigona's Dream of the Mountain, which is made in Switzerland, and Sigona's Moo-Na Lisa Reserve, which is made for us by Central Coast Creamery in California. Many of the cheeses you'll find here are award-winners themselves, such as Hornbacher, an incredible, handcrafted and aged cheese made by 4-time World Cheese Champion Michael Spycher. Our market in Palo Alto, located in the Stanford Shopping Center, has an extensive cheese department as well.
