CHEESE

• Chabichou | Poitou-Charentes. Unpasteurised Goat's Milk. 1 unit - 150g. A soft, fresh tasting cheese, shaped like a gently tapered cylinder. The texture is smooth yet quite close-textured. Produced traditionally with a lovely aromatic rind. 
• Camembert Fermier Tremblay | Normandy. Pasteurised Cow's Milk - 1 unit - 250g.  Traditional cheese with a soft supple texture & bloomy white rind tinged with rust to show through (denotes matured on straw). Best eaten when moist & not too melting. A fruity aroma with a rich earthy flavour.
• Beaufort Chalet D'Alpage | Savoie, Unpasteurised Cow's Milk (550g). The raison d'être of La Fromagerie. A classic high mountain cheese from small traditional producers selecting cheeses from the summer milk forms, made and matured at high altitudes in mountain chalets. The flavours are lovely – with an almost sweet almond nuttiness.
• Langres | Champagne, Thermised Cow's Milk (240g). Drum-shaped with a depressed, crater-like top (due to not turning the cheese during early affinage) with a soft, luminous, pale orange rind. Washed in Marc du Champagne, the interior pate is rich, moist, and spicy, and should be almost melting below the rind with a flaky centre. 
• Fourme D'Ambert, Auvergne, Cow, Pasteurised (300g) 
  Known as the 'connoisseur’s blue cheese.' Capsule-shaped, patched with grey/white moulds on a natural thin rind. The texture is rich and mellow with a nutty subtle flavour, making it a perfect partner for fine wines as the taste is not overly aggressive.
