Atlantans finally got the cheese shop<\/a> of their dreams in July 2022 with the long-awaited opening of Capella Cheese<\/a> in Armour Yards<\/a>, a \u201ccreative office community located between Buckhead and Midtown.\u201d The expansive 3500 square foot converted warehouse, equipped with a 12-foot cheese case and state-of-the-art high humidity, zero airflow cheese storage rooms, offers a contemporary environment for shopping. <\/p>\n

One exciting feature of the shop\u2013the return of active cheese sampling. Although the pandemic temporarily squashed the popular activity<\/a>, tasting through the cut to order cheeses at the counter with highly trained staff is alive and well at Capella. <\/p>\n

The Store<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Industry vet Raymond Hook, owner and cheese mastermind behind Capella with partners Clay Jackson and Samantha Naik, curates a broad, tantalizing selection of over 200 local and international artisan cheeses at all price points. Of course, there\u2019s charcuterie and Hook himself can be found on the Berkel flywheel meat slicer, he also hand carves legs of Jamon de Bellota Iberico on occasion. The store has carefully chosen specialty products from all over the globe\u2013wine, beer, crackers, condiments, chocolate to accompany the cheesy delights.<\/p>\n

According to Hook customers have been very enthusiastic about the shop, adding, \u201cThey love the look and design of the store, it has an open feeling and lots of natural light. They’ve also enjoyed being able to sample cheeses before buying so they can know what they like\u2026and trying new products.\u201d<\/p>\n

Capella employees make fresh cheeses right on site, bringing another dynamic twist to the space. \u201cThe customers love to watch Brittany Billups make fresh mozzarella and burrata right in front of them. They can buy it when it\u2019s still warm, which is a new experience for many.\u201d<\/p>\n

That house made mozzarella quickly became the number one seller. \u201cWe offer our guests the treat of getting to see their mozzarella being made,\u201d says Hook, \u201cand the ability to eat it fresh, as it was intended. It is exceptional, hand crafted, and only sold the day it is made.\u201d<\/p>\n

A local cow\u2019s milk softie made in Thomasville, GA by Sweet Grass Dairy<\/a>, less than 250 miles from the shop, clocks in at number two. \u201cThis cheese is made from the milk of cows who live in pastures every day and 90% of their food is grown on the farm,\u201d adds Hook. \u201cIt is a double cream white bloomy rind cheese that gets super soft and creamy as it ripens.\u201d<\/p>\n
