If you’ve ever been to a cocktail party in Savannah, chances are you’ve tried the Savannah Cheese Straw Company’s famous snack. The same can be said for a beach day, a boat ride, a tail gate… the list goes on!

Abshire PR is so excited to partner with such an iconic staple in our community to help spread the word on where you can pick up your next box of these delicious snacks. Lucky for Savannah, the longtime local favorite has officially opened a new retail location just in time for the holidays!

The locally-owned and operated snack company started in 2018, but is 20 years in the making. The recipe was developed over 10 years ago as a popular item on owner Katie Tedder Burgess’s catering menu. Demand for the slightly spicy, savory Southern staple drove Burgess to devote all of her efforts to producing and marketing her crisp, artisan snacks, gaining a national and international following. After a three- year partnership with a Savannah restaurant, The Savannah Cheese Straw Company is now on their own and recently moved into a new retail store front, conveniently located at 906 E. 72nd Street in midtown Savannah.

“This is a labor of love. It makes me so happy that people keep selecting The Savannah Cheese Straw as their favorite party snack,” said Burgess.

Made with no preservatives and only six, simple ingredients, including cheddar and cayenne, these scrumptious, savory straws pair perfectly with beer, wine or your favorite beverage and are a welcome addition to any charcuterie board, picnic, buffet or tailgate. Hand packed into one of three sizes (3, 7 or 14 oz), they also make a delightful hostess gift, teacher present or stocking stuffer. Go get your next box today!

Their new retail shop is open Monday – Friday from 8am – 5pm. For the month of December, they are also open on Saturday from 9am – 2pm. For more details, visit their website at www.thesavannahcheesestrawcompany.com
