Unpasteurised Cathare Goat's Cheese 180g approx

Soft raw goat's cheese.

Artisan farmhouse goat's milk cheese made in the Languedoc Roussillon region of southern France, in Cathar country. Made with whole raw goat’s milk, using pre-drained salted curd. The Cathare, sometimes called Catal, has a natural, fine, delicately pleated crust. The beautiful, ashed rind is delicate and miraculously decorated with the Occitan cross. It's such a striking cheese, it's automatically the one that everybody -- young and old -- wants to try first.

On the palate, this goat cheese is fine and melting.

A young cheese matured for about 2 weeks, though the flavour deepens with further ageing. Buy it ahead of time and let it age another week or so at home , and the smell and flavour intensify in just that time,

It settled in Saint Félix Lauragais in  1985,. Their farm is located about forty kilometres south-east of Toulouse. Here, they keep a herd of 120 Saanen goats that delight in the abundant pastures offered by Cocagne Country. 

Unpasteurised goat's milk (96.76%), lactic ferments (1.8%), salt (0.74%), vegetable carbon (0.5%), animal rennet (0.2%).
