An extremely rare goat's milk cheese from the Haut-Savoie. Aged for at least two months by the Paccard family, this rustic fermier cheese has a crumbly texture, and an earthy, tangy, floral flavor. This truly authentic cheese is best with a nice red from the Northern Rhone, some crisp pears or a cherry compote.
Fromagerie Joseph Paccard
Joseph Paccard is a relatively new affineur. Located in the village of Manigod in the Savoie region of France, Paccard and his sons carefully select the farms they work with, developing close relationships with cheesemakers. This means the cheeses we receive are of an exceptionally high standard.
All of the cheese the Paccards sell and age is "fermier," meaning it is being made by cheesemakers who are raising their own animals. They select fresh wheels of cheese and care for them in their caves until they are ready to be sold.
