Cailloux Cheese Shop
“I’m Janelle Norman, owner and cheesemonger at Cailloux Cheese Shop. My favorite cheese fluctuates with my mood, but as I write this profile I would say it is "Ossau-Iraty," the acclaimed Franco-Basque sheep's milk cheese. I decided to open a cheese shop in Solvang after multiple stints of working in the food industry as a cheesemonger, prep cook, butcher's apprentice, wine tasting room associate, etc.. I knew my passion for cheese, wine, and charcuterie was directing me down the path of founding my own shop one day. I hope to create a new staple in the Santa Ynez community for residents and visitors alike to experience new pleasures and find artisanal products they won't be able to live without!” — Janelle Norman, owner
