Red Hawk cheese

Red Hawk is a type of American triple-crème aged cow's-milk cheese with a brine-washed rind produced by the Cowgirl Creamery in Point Reyes Station, California. The brine wash encourages the development of the red-orange rind and the cheese was named after red-tailed hawks that are frequently seen around the city of Point Reyes Station.^[1]
