| La Marotte |
 Made by a small coop in Larzac, La Marrotte is a natural rind cheese. Rustic in appearance, the aromas of this sheep's milk tommette are mossy, licheny, and smell delicately of a wool sweater that has been in the woods for a couple days. Each small wheel of La Marotte cheese is delicately wrapped in muslin and then left to age which leaves the hatched pattern on the exterior of the cheese. The paste is dense and smooth as is classic with sheep's milk cheeses. Organoleptic characteristics Texture: chewy and slightly grainy. Taste: medium-strong, nutty flavor with an earthy, tangy finish. Serving suggestions Pair this exquisite French cheese with a robust red wine for a fine aperitif. Ingredients Pasteurized sheep's milk, salt, traditional rennet, ferments Price: 21.99 |
