Celebrating Four Years of Community, Cheese and Connection

Celebrating Four Years of Community, Cheese and Connection

Four years ago, Capella Cheese opened with a simple idea: create a neighborhood cheese shop where everyone feels welcome.

Today, we're incredibly grateful to celebrate another anniversary—and it's only possible because of the community that has supported us every step of the way.

A Letter from Owners Clay Jackson & Raymond Hook

Thank you for your support. It has meant so much to all of us at the shop.

We're excited to share that we've extended our lease for another three years. Atlanta needs a quality cheese shop, and we're here to stay.

Thank you for continuing to spread the word about Capella. Whether you've stopped in for a favorite cheese, discovered something new, joined one of our classes, or trusted us with gifts for friends, family, or clients—you've helped make Capella what it is today.

We strive to always offer the very best cheeses we can find. Just as importantly, we're committed to learning as much as possible so we can share that knowledge with every customer who walks through our doors.

Thank you for being part of our journey.


What Matters Most at Capella

As we celebrate four years, we thought it would be a great time to share the values that guide everything we do.

It's All About the Cheese (and You)

We believe every customer deserves exceptional cheese in exceptional condition. From wheel to wedge, every cheese is handled with care because flavor, texture, and quality matter.

Our goal is simple: when you take home cheese from Capella, it's the very best version of itself.

Knowledge Is Meant to Be Shared

Every cheese has a story.

Our cheesemongers are constantly tasting, studying, and learning so they can help customers discover something new. Whether you're buying your first wedge or searching for a rare favorite, we're here to answer questions and share what we've learned.

Learning is one of our favorite parts of the job—and sharing it is even better.

Cheese Is Community

A great cheese shop is about much more than cheese.

It's about bringing together cheesemakers, mongers, customers, and friends around a shared table.

Capella has become a gathering place where people connect, celebrate milestones, discover new foods, and support local artisans. That sense of community is one of the things we're most proud of.

A Love Worth Spreading

Raymond often says his goal is simple: "Help people fall in love with cheese."

Everything we do—from recommending the perfect pairing to wrapping a gift or teaching a class—is rooted in that idea.

When people discover a new favorite cheese and share it with family and friends, that excitement spreads. That's the kind of community we've always hoped to build.

Celebrate With Us

To celebrate our fourth anniversary, we're offering:

  • 10% off your purchase with code THANKSFOR4YEARS
  • A complimentary Green Hill cheese with purchases of $35 or more (while supplies last)
  • In-store festivities throughout the day

Whether you've been with us since opening day or just discovered Capella this year, thank you for supporting independent cheesemakers, local businesses, and our little cheese shop.

Here's to many more years of sharing great cheese together.
