Health and nutrition advantages

The first reason for selecting Haystack's Goat Cheese is its great flavor! Goat cheese also has many health benefits for those who want to reduce their fat intake or are allergic to cow milk.

Great Taste
Haystack Mountain Goat Dairy has won national awards for its creamy, clean, citrusy and great tasting goat cheese.

Vegetable Rennet
Our cheeses are all natural, hand-crafted from sweet, high-quality goat milk, using the finest cheese cultures and vegetable rennet with traditional artisan cheesemaking techniques. There are no preservatives.

Easily Digested
For years, people with sensitive stomachs have opted for goat milk products. The fats in goat cheese are smaller and produce a softer curd. Their small size makes them easier to digest than the larger fats in cow cheese. Our goat cheese has the added benefit of containing no bovine growth hormones.

Nutritional Value
When compared to cow milk products like cheddar and cream cheese, our Haystack Mountain Goat Cheese is lower in fat, calories and cholesterol. For example, cream cheese has 9.9 grams of fat per ounce, and cheddar cheese has 9.4 grams. But Haystack Mountain's Boulder Chèvre has a low 5.5 grams of fat. In addition to these benefits, goat cheese has greater quantities of potassium, vitamin A, thiamin and niacin, and is rich in protein.
