French Goat Cheese Le Chevrot 7 oz.

Le Chevrot - goat's milk aged cheese - 7 oz/200 gr, France.

Le Chevrot comes from Sevre et Belle, a large, century-old dairy cooperative in the Poitou-Charentes region. It is a soft ripened, hand ladle molded and pasteurized goat milk cheese. It is a "living" cheese : as it is not wrapped, it can thus ripen slowly gaining in character- when kept in the fridge at 4-6°C. After three weeks it becomes dry and numbly. The tender, brainy, edible rind softens the cheese it covers, creating a thick, silk textured cream-line. The center is moist, dense and clay-like with a sweet, tangy flavor in youth that becomes increasingly piquant and nutty with age. Tasting advices : Serve at the end of a meal with a white wine when the cheese is young or with a red wine when it has matured.
