Saint-Nectaire fermier
Saint-Nectaire fermier
Our Farmhouse Saint-Nectaire produced and matured at le Bois-Joli in Saint-Diéry (Cantal - Auvergne).
This Saint-Nectaire is very unique for its creamy flavor, its soft and smooth texture and the delicate mushroomy/nutty taste of its rind that stays in the mouth.
And yes: we DO eat the Saint-Nectaire rind!
The Chassard family has a cattle that spends most of its time outside in the green fields of Auvergne and eat a very diverse flora. That’s what gives so much flavor and intensity to the milk.
They grow Montbéliardes cows which offer a milk with high potential for cheese making and is also used for the production of Comté !
For these reasons but also many others, this cheese is a must-have on any cheese platter!
The quantity may vary to more or less 10%
