This Comte has been aged for 18 months - one of the best. From the taste atlas: Comté is a big, hard cheese made from unpasteurized cow's milk, with at least 45% fat and a pressed, cooked paste. It is made in the Jura massif in the caves of Doubs, Jura and Haute-Saône departments in France. The maturation period lasts at least 120 days and it is turned and scrubbed regularly during the process. Each cheese wheel is unique with numerous taste varieties that can range from milky, spicy, roasted to fruity, buttery or plant-like due to the fact the milk it is made from must be used immediately. Comté also has a seasonal stamp, like winter, summer, mountain Comté or plains Comté.

The texture of the cheese is creamy and it can be sliced, grated or cubed. It also melts easily, and is best paired with sherry and red wines or it can be melted in fondues.

You can buy our cheese by multiples of 200 gr, 0.2 kg. That means if you select 1 unit you will get 200 gr of cheese. Multiples unit are usually cut in one bigger piece unless specified by you in the order.
